Amazon has announced plans to release a documentary about Melania Trump, the incoming First Lady of the United States. The project, slated for release in theaters and on Amazon Prime Video in late 2025, will offer a detailed look at her life and accomplishments.
Melania Trump will serve as an executive producer on the film, indicating she will play an influential role in shaping its content.
Limited details on the project
Filming for the documentary began in December 2024, but Amazon has shared few specifics about the storyline. The company described the project as a “truly unique story” and promised to share additional updates as production progresses.
“We are excited to share this truly unique story with our millions of customers around the world,” the company added.
Director selection
Brett Ratner, a filmmaker with an extensive background in Hollywood, will direct the documentary. However, Ratner has faced allegations of misconduct, including claims made by actress Olivia Munn in 2017, which his lawyer denied. The choice of director has raised some concerns, but Amazon has not commented on his involvement.
Melania Trump’s role and public image
Melania Trump has not publicly addressed the project, leaving questions about how deeply she will engage in the creative process. However, her executive producer title suggests she will have substantial editorial control.
The documentary is the latest addition to Trump’s growing media portfolio, following the October release of her autobiography, which became a best seller on both the New York Times and Amazon charts.

Since leaving the White House with her husband in 2021, Melania Trump has largely stayed out of the public eye. She has made only a few appearances alongside her husband, President-Elect Donald Trump, who is set to take the oath of office later this month.
Speculation about whether she will reside in the White House after Trump returns to Washington has also surfaced, though no official confirmation has been provided.
Growing ties between Trump and Bezos
The announcement of the documentary also highlights the increasingly visible ties between Trump and Amazon founder Jeff Bezos. In December, Bezos revealed that Amazon had donated $1 million to Trump’s inauguration fund, along with an additional $1 million in services.
The company will also stream Trump’s inauguration on its Prime Video platform. Bezos, who called Trump’s re-election “an extraordinary political comeback,” dined with the president-elect at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida late last year.
Anticipation builds for the 2025 release.
The documentary is expected to offer an in-depth perspective on Melania Trump’s life, though Amazon has yet to clarify its specific focus. With her involvement as executive producer and the ongoing public interest in her life, the film will likely draw significant attention when it debuts in 2025.
