Melania releases to theaters worldwide
The doc style film following the first lady hits theaters worldwide today after premiering at the newly rebranded Trump Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C last night. Directed and co-produced by Brett Ratner and distributed by Amazon MGM Studios, Melania offers an intimate look at the First Lady during the 20 days leading up to Donald Trump’s second presidential inauguration in 2025. The 104-minute documentary provides behind-the-scenes access to her life, including family, transition activities, and public duties. The film is being released in approximately 1,500–2,000 theaters worldwide, fulfilling Amazon MGM’s distribution agreement and maximizing global visibility. After its theatrical run, Melania is expected to stream exclusively on Amazon Prime Video — likely three to four weeks after its theatrical debut — though an exact streaming date has not yet been confirmed. A three-part follow-up documentary series focusing on Melania Trump’s activities and travels is also planned, with its release targeted for later in 2026 as part of the project’s broader expansion.
