Brilio.net/en - We know how convincing Johnny Depp was as a wacky pirate, mad hatter and even a murderous barber. But will he be good enough when playing the role of a mogul who became drunk, Donald J. Trump?
On Wednesday, the humor website Funny or Die began to stream a 50-minute comical biopic, The Art of the Deal: The Movie starring Depp as a newly minted politician. The movie was released to coincide with Trumps victory on Tuesday in the New Hampshire Republican presidential primary.
Spoofing on Trumps 1987 literary masterpiece of the same name, Adam McKay, the comedy websites founder, involved top comedians to live the characters in Trumps world like Michaela Watkins (Ivana Trump) and Patton Oswalt (Merv Griffin) while keeping the production process a in secret.
The fake television of the week seems to really define the genre of the movie as narrator Ron Howard told viewers at the beginning that the movie was made in the 1980s and had Mr. Trump as its writer, producer, director and star.
The movie then opened with Depp as Trump bragging his ambitious dream when he was just a boy, dreaming of having his own Taj Mahal... and you know the rest.
Check the short clip below and head to Funny or Die to watch the full movie.
