Marvel Star Reportedly Set To Play Young Trump In New Film
Huff PostLOADING ERROR LOADING Sebastian Stan is reportedly set to portray a younger version of Donald Trump in a film about the former president’s New York real estate business in the 1980s and 1990s. Jeff Kravitz via Getty Images “Succession” star Jeremy Strong will play Trump’s infamous early mentor Roy Cohn, and Maria Bakalova — of “Borat 2” and “Guardians of the Galaxy” fame — will play Trump’s first wife, the late Ivana Trump, Deadline and Variety reported Wednesday. The movie will be directed by Ali Abbasi, who has directed multiple episodes of the HBO hit “The Last of Us.” Maria Bakalova will reportedly play Trump’s first wife, the late Ivana Trump. Bakalova, for her part, stole the show in the 2020 “Borat” sequel over that scene with former Trump attorney Rudy Giuliani.
