Melania Trump's documentary premieres at the Kennedy Center ahead of global release

The documentary chronicles the 20 days before Donald Trump’s 47th inauguration, with a global release in 1,600 theaters and streaming on Amazon Prime Video.

  • On Thursday, First Lady Melania Trump will premiere a documentary at the Kennedy Center with the Trumps expected to walk the red carpet and a simulcast in 21 theaters.
  • Her longtime adviser Marc Beckman says Melania Trump spent chunks of time last year working on the documentary, deeply involved in all aspects while filming began in December 2024.
  • Producer credits include Melania Trump, Marc Beckman and Fernando Sulichin, and the nearly two-hour film was produced by Amazon Studios, costing $40 million, streaming on Amazon Prime Video.
  • Experts say the film could improve her public standing, as a private White House screening last Saturday and Melania's NYSE bell appearance amplified interest amid ethical concerns about outside ventures.
  • Historians call the arrangement unprecedented for a first lady as Amazon declined to comment on financial arrangements, leaving unclear how much Melania Trump stands to earn from the film linking the Trumps to Jeff Bezos.
