Sebastian Stan has played a wide array of characters thus far in his career, but perhaps the showiest of them all comes this weekend, when his portrayal of a young and upwardly mobile Donald Trump is showcased in the buzzy new film “The Apprentice.

Hollywood actor Sebastian Stan, who has previously headlined several popular projects, is playing a young Donald Trump in the new film The Apprentice. Speaking to CNN recently, Stan discussed his process and mentioned that he relied on "instinct and collaboration" to create his character.

"The Apprentice" explores Trump's ascent to prominence in the '70s and '80s, long before his political career. It also highlights his connection with the notorious attorney Roy Cohn.
