Sebastian Stan embodied Donald Trump in a new clip from controversial biopic, The Apprentice released on Tuesday.

Golden Globe nominee Stan, 42, transformed into a younger version of the businessman and former President for a scene with Jeremy Strong as Trump's disgraced — and eventually disbarred — lawyer Roy Cohn. 

He was later disbarred in 1986 for defrauding a dying client. 

The scene shows the pair traveling in a car while a reporter speaks to Trump about a potential interview.

Cohn says: 'Listen, Judy, about 100 reporters were crawling up my ass to get this interview, and I gave you the exclusive.'

He passes the phone to Trump - with the reporter asking him what he will do next 'now that the lawsuit is behind you.' 

A posturing Trump responds: 'I intend to acquire The Commodore, I'm planning on making it the best and the finest building in the city, maybe the country.

'In the world, Judy, in the world. It's going to be the finest building in the world, it's going to be spectacular hotel, absolutely spectacular, first-class.'

'I've got flair and I'm smart. I think that's going to make me successful. But, I also want to stay humble.'

Cohn takes the phone off Trump and tells Judy: 'Let's do the rest in person, and bring a photographer, okay?'

Cohn tells Trump: 'I mean, listen, you're alive. You've got a ways to go, but, uh, you're learning.'

The Apprentice premiered at the Cannes Film Festival in May.

The film follows Trump in the '70s and '80s as he attempts to establish his real estate empire on the back of his father Fred Trump's properties.

The Apprentice is directed by the Iranian filmmaker Ali Abbasi, who shot the critically acclaimed Persian-language crime thriller Holy Spider (2022).

Oscar-nominated actress Maria Bakalova will play Trump's late ex-wife Ivana Trump.

Variety initially reported that the film's title would be The Student, adding that a logline for the forthcoming film described it as 'an exploration of power and ambition set in a world of corruption and deceit.

'It's a mentor-protégé story that charts the origins of an American dynasty. Filled with larger than life characters, it reveals the moral and human cost of a culture defined by winners and losers.'

The screenplay for the film was penned by writer Gabriel Sherman, who authored the 2014 book The Loudest Voice in the Room: How the Brilliant, Bombastic Roger Ailes Built Fox News – and Divided a Country.

The book was subsequently adapted into the 2019 Showtime miniseries The Loudest Voice.

Sebastian is surging professionally, having garnered nominations for an Emmy and Golden Globe after playing the role of Tommy Lee in Hulu's Pam & Tommy, which hit Hulu in 2022.

Last year, Stan was in multiple movies, including Dumb Money, Sharper and Ghosted.

Stan, who has also been seen in multiple MCU films playing Bucky 'Winter Soldier' Barnes, is the latest in a line of performers who have played Trump.

Few of those have been for dramatic productions, with the most recent being Irish actor Brendan Gleeson in the 2020 Showtime miniseries The Comey Rule.

Trump has been spoofed for decades on NBC's Saturday Night Live, with actors including Alec Baldwin, Darrell Hammond, Jason Sudeikis, Taran Killam and the late Phil Hartman playing the role at different points.
