Based on the acclaimed biographies by Gwenda Blair, “Trump Unauthorized” stars Justin Louis (“Missing”) and traces the legendary real estate developer’s career from his beginnings in Queens where he worked for his father, to his current role as America’s most celebrated developer and businessman. Trump’s first major success was the infamous transformation of the Commodore Hotel into the luxurious Grand Hyatt during one of Manhattan’s economic rough times. As Trump’s empire grew, he became a master of media, using the spotlight to bring favourable attention to his visions. While his clashes with City Hall became notorious, it was his divorce from wife Ivana and subsequent romance with Marla Maples, that rivalled attention. During this turbulent personal time, Trump’s business dealings collapsed, causing him to unload some of his most glamorous assets but would cement his reputation as the comeback king. Also stars Katheryn Winnick (“CSI: Miami, Oz”) as Ivana, Jennifer Baxter (“America’s Prince: The John F. Kennedy Jr. Story”) as Marla Maples and Richard Portnow (“Laughter on the 23rd Floor”) as Mayor Ed Koch.
