Presidential candidate Donald Trump is sensationally depicted raping his wife Ivana in a film which premiered in Cannes tonight.
In The Apprentice actor Sebastian Stan plays Trump as a younger man and Succession star Jeremy Strong portrays his fixer Roy Cohn.
The movie, which is in competition at the festival tells the story of the end of his marriage to Ivana, and shows her offering him a book about how to be a better lover.
Trump is shown telling her that he no longer finds her attractive. He rapes her and then asks 'did I find your g spot?'
In a divorce deposition in 1989 Ivana made an accusation of rape but rescinded this in 2015. She has since died.

The makers of the film are now reported to be in dispute with one of its financial backers, billionaire Dan Snyder, who is a Trump supporter and former donor to his campaign.
The Apprentice sees Sebastian Stan play Trump during the flourishing early years of his business career, notably his working relationship with controversial lawyer Roy Cohn, who died of an AIDS-related illness in 1986.
Production on The Apprentice began in late November. The film follows Trump in the '70s and '80s as he attempts to establish his real estate empire on the back of his father Fred Trump's properties.
The Apprentice is directed by the Iranian filmmaker Ali Abbasi, who shot the critically acclaimed Persian-language crime thriller Holy Spider, released in 2022.
Succession star Jeremy Strong, who will portray disgraced — and eventually disbarred — lawyer Roy Cohn, will be prominently featured as the younger Trump's mentor. He was later disbarred in 1986 for defrauding a dying client.

Oscar-nominated actress Maria Bakalova plays Trump's late ex-wife Ivana Trump in her younger years.
Variety initially reported that the film's title would be The Student, adding that a logline for the forthcoming film described it as 'an exploration of power and ambition set in a world of corruption and deceit.
'It's a mentor-protégé story that charts the origins of an American dynasty. Filled with larger than life characters, it reveals the moral and human cost of a culture defined by winners and losers.'
The screenplay for the film was written by Gabriel Sherman, who authored the 2014 book The Loudest Voice in the Room: How the Brilliant, Bombastic Roger Ailes Built Fox News – and Divided a Country.
In a 1993 statement, she said, 'On one occasion during 1989, Mr Trump and I had marital relations in which he behaved very differently towards me than he had during our marriage'

In Ivana Trump's 1990 divorce deposition, she stated that Mr Trump raped her. She claimed that Trump pushed her to the floor and pulled out several handfuls of her hair.
Mr Trump denied the allegation and Ivana Trump later said she did not mean it literally, but rather that she had felt violated.
In a 1993 statement, she said, 'On one occasion during 1989, Mr Trump and I had marital relations in which he behaved very differently towards me than he had during our marriage.
'As a woman I felt violated … I referred to this as a rape, but I do not want my words to be interpreted in a literal or criminal sense.'
