Brett Ratner is going to direct his first film since he was accused of sexual harassment by Elliot Page and others. Ratner will helm a yet-untitled Melania Trump documentary for Amazon MGM Studios.

In a statement, Amazon described the film as “an unprecedented, behind-the-scenes look at (the) First Lady.” The studio added, “We are excited to share this truly unique story with our millions of customers around the world. “

The movie will be released in theaters and on streaming in the second half of 2025 after beginning production in December. Melania Trump is on board as a producer, and is joined by New Element Media’s Fernando Sulichin.
