Melania Trump’s upcoming self-titled film may be off to a rocky debut.
Melania, the documentary film produced by Amazon MGM Studios and directed by Brett Ratner about President Donald Trump’s wife, was pulled from theaters in South Africa ahead of its Friday, January 30, U.S. release.
“Based on recent developments, we’ve taken the decision to not go ahead with a theatrical release in territory,” Thobashan Govindarajulu, the head of sales and marketing for distributor Filmfinity, told the New York Times on Wednesday.
The publication noted that Govindarajulu declined to define the “recent developments,” but said that the South African distributor was not pressured to pull it.
“That was our decision,” he said.
