First Lady Melania Trump Announces Premiere Date for New Docuseries

First Lady Melania Trump announced that her two-part docuseries, titled “Melania, The Series,” will premiere on Amazon Prime Video on Nov. 20. The announcement was accompanied by a trailer posted on social media.

The series, directed by Brett Ratner, follows the earlier feature-length documentary “Melania,” which covered the days leading up to the 47th presidential inauguration. Amazon MGM Studios acquired the original film and its associated rights, according to a press release.

According to Amazon, the series will present “never-before-told stories” and “unprecedented insight” into the former first lady’s life, focusing on the period immediately after the inauguration. The first episode, “Family & Trust,” is described as following Trump as she prepares for her role as first lady and addresses challenges within the White House. The second episode, “Pride & Honor,” is said to explore her initiatives following the inauguration.

In the trailer, Trump is heard saying, “Everybody wants to be close to power and sometimes could be very dangerous,” and later adds, “I’m a mother, a wife, also first lady,” while noting that “the media, they want gossip. For me, it’s noise.”

The announcement generated mixed reactions on social media, with some commentators expressing skepticism about the series.
