United States: 1st Lady Melania Trump of the United States, is set to be the executive producer of a new documentary on Amazon Prime Video, slated for release later this year. The project, which began filming in December 2024, is expected to hit theaters and streaming platforms in the second half of 2025.
While details about the documentary remain scarce, Amazon Prime has expressed enthusiasm about sharing “this truly unique story” with viewers worldwide. The exact extent of Mrs. Trump’s involvement is unclear, but her role as executive producer indicates she will have significant editorial control over the project.
Directed by Brett Ratner, the film is being produced amid controversy surrounding the director’s past allegations of sexual misconduct, which he has denied. Despite this, Ratner’s involvement continues as the project moves forward.
This documentary adds to Mrs. Trump’s recent media endeavours, including the release of her best-selling memoir in October. Her continued public appearances have been limited, and reports suggest she may not reside in the White House when her husband, President-Elect Donald Trump, returns to Washington later this month.
Amazon has also strengthened its ties to the Trump administration, with recent donations to Trump’s inauguration fund and a commitment to stream the event on its platform. These connections come alongside Amazon founder Jeff Bezos’ praise of Trump’s political comeback and a private dinner with the president-elect at his Mar-a-Lago estate.
