Former President Donald Trump's campaign is considering legal action against the creators of the film 'The Apprentice' after its premiere at the Cannes Film Festival.

The film includes controversial scenes depicting Trump allegedly throwing his first wife to the floor, taking amphetamine pills, and raping his wife, sparking backlash from Trump and his supporters.

Director Ali Abbasi offered to privately screen the film for Trump, stressing its political relevance and warning of the rising wave of fascism.

The film received an eight-minute standing ovation at its premiere despite the controversy.

Trump denies any wrongdoing, calling the film defamatory and focusing on his earlier relationship with mentor Roy Cohn.

Trump's campaign has labeled the film 'pure fiction' and accused it of election interference.

Trump, known for threatening legal action against unflattering portrayals, has not yet commented on the film.

The film has not been scheduled for a U.S. release.
