Amazon Prime Video has unveiled plans for a highly anticipated documentary offering a rare glimpse into the life of the incoming First Lady of the United States, Melania Trump. Slated for release in late 2025, the film promises to provide viewers with an intimate behind-the-scenes look at her journey and experiences. Melania Trump will also serve as the documentary’s executive producer, highlighting her significant creative involvement.

The production of the film began in December 2024, with the dual release set for theaters and the streaming platform. While Amazon Prime has remained tight-lipped about specific details, the company expressed enthusiasm for what it describes as a “unique and compelling story” about the former model-turned-First Lady.

Melania Trump’s Executive Role

As executive producer, Melania Trump is expected to have considerable creative input and editorial oversight of the documentary. Despite the announcement, neither she nor President-Elect Donald Trump has publicly commented on the project.

Amazon Prime Video shared its excitement about the documentary, stating, “We are thrilled to bring this captivating story to a global audience. More updates will follow as production progresses.”

Brett Ratner Directs Amid Controversy

The documentary is being directed by Brett Ratner, known for his work on major Hollywood productions. However, Ratner’s career has faced scrutiny in recent years due to allegations of misconduct, which he has denied. Despite this controversy, his involvement adds a layer of intrigue to the project.

Melania Trump in the Spotlight Again

This upcoming documentary is another chapter in Melania Trump’s public life. She recently released a bestselling memoir in October 2024, which provided insights into her life and experiences. Her limited appearances since leaving the White House in 2017 have only heightened public curiosity about her role in her husband’s political career and her personal journey.

Reports have also suggested that Melania Trump may delay moving into the White House, further fueling speculation about her plans as First Lady.

Amazon’s Growing Ties with the Trump Administration

The announcement of the documentary aligns with Amazon’s apparent warming relationship with the Trump administration. Jeff Bezos, Amazon’s founder, recently contributed $1 million to President-Elect Trump’s inauguration fund and pledged further support through in-kind donations.

This partnership reflects Amazon Prime Video's ambitions to blend personal and political storytelling, with the documentary poised to showcase Melania Trump during a pivotal moment in her husband's career.
