Melania will be released exclusively in theaters on Jan. 30, 2026 in the U.S. and select territories overseas, Amazon MGM Studios announced on Thursday. The feature film follows the First Lady in the 20 days leading up to Donald Trumps 2025 inauguration.
The movie will then later hit streaming, but will also be accompanied by a three-episode Melania Trump docuseries that will also stream on Prime Video.
Step inside Melania Trumps world as she orchestrates inauguration plans, navigates the complexities of the White House transition and reenters public life with her family, the official synopsis reads. With exclusive footage capturing critical meetings, private conversations, and never-before-seen environments, Melania showcases Mrs. Trumps return to one of the worlds most powerful roles.
Melania was directed by Brett Ratner in the filmmakers first film since he was accused of sexual assault in 2017. In the wake of allegations from several women, Warner Bros. severed ties with Ratner, where his production company RatPac had been set up.
