Amazon MGM's Melania Trump Documentary to Be Released in Theaters in January

Amazon’s Melania Trump documentary is coming to theaters.
“Melania” will be released exclusively in theaters on Jan. 30, 2026 in the U.S. and select territories overseas, Amazon MGM Studios announced on Thursday. The feature film follows the First Lady in the 20 days leading up to Donald Trump’s 2025 inauguration.

The movie will then later hit streaming, but will also be accompanied by a three-episode Melania Trump docuseries that will also stream on Prime Video.

“Step inside Melania Trump’s world as she orchestrates inauguration plans, navigates the complexities of the White House transition and reenters public life with her family,” the official synopsis reads. “With exclusive footage capturing critical meetings, private conversations, and never-before-seen environments, ‘Melania’ showcases Mrs. Trump’s return to one of the world’s most powerful roles.”

“Melania” was directed by Brett Ratner in the filmmaker’s first film since he was accused of sexual assault in 2017. In the wake of allegations from several women, Warner Bros. severed ties with Ratner, where his production company RatPac had been set up.

... to the Third Lady! Given the director's sexual assault history, and the erotic modeling career, maybe we will get some tips on how to navigate nude photo shoots when you don't want to have actual sex.

abortion clinics gives them unnecessary publicity. Anyone who goes to see this should be publicly confronted IMHO.
