Sebastian Stan Spills the Tea on Why Playing Young Donald Trump Was Tougher Than a Kardashian’s Workout Plan

Sebastian Stan, our beloved Bucky Barnes, has traded in his vibranium arm for a 1970s hairpiece to play a young Donald Trump in The Apprentice. Yep, you read that rightโ€”heโ€™s gone full Trump, and the experience was no walk in Mar-a-Lago.

In a fresh interview, the 42-year-old actor shared that stepping into the former Presidentโ€™s shoes was like trying to run in stilettosโ€”uncomfortable, precarious, and bound to provoke reactions. And boy, did it ever. Even the President-elect chimed in with an opinion, because of course.

The Struggles of a Stan-Tastic Trump
โ€œHonestly, it wasnโ€™t just about becoming Trump,โ€ Sebastian said on Varietyโ€™s Awards Circuit podcast. โ€œIt was the sheer circus of reactions. People told me not to do it. They said I didnโ€™t look like himโ€”like, duh, I donโ€™t have the hair or the spray tan. Others said it was career suicide. But hey, acting isnโ€™t about playing it safeโ€”itโ€™s about jumping into the deep end, even if the pool is full of sharks.โ€

Sebastian added, โ€œPeople confuse trying to understand someone with sympathizing with them. Nope. Not here. The movie doesnโ€™t scream, โ€˜Hug a Trump!โ€™ Itโ€™s more like, โ€˜Would you even let this guy hold your coffee order, let alone your future?โ€™ Big questions, people.โ€

Hollywoodโ€™s Silent Shade
While critics and fans have been chewing over the film like itโ€™s a Thanksgiving turkey, Sebastian confessed that the Hollywood response has been…awkward. โ€œItโ€™s funny,โ€ he said. โ€œPeople come up to me at partiesโ€”whispering, of courseโ€”saying itโ€™s their favorite film of the year. But when it comes to shouting it from the rooftops? Crickets. Iโ€™m like, come on, donโ€™t leave me hanging!โ€

Oh, and about that whole Varietyโ€™s Actors on Actors thing? Sebastian had to bow out because, drumroll, nobody wanted to chat with him. Thatโ€™s rightโ€”the guy who survived Thanosโ€™s snap couldnโ€™t survive the Hollywood cold shoulder. But hey, Paul Walter Hauser, his buddy from I, Tonya, swooped in to say, โ€œIโ€™ll do it, bro!โ€ Now thatโ€™s friendship.

The Real Question
Would you trust Sebastian Stan-Trump to sell you a used car, let alone navigate the complexities of life? Who knows? But one thingโ€™s for sureโ€”Stanโ€™s performance is leaving everyone talking, even if some are doing it in hushed tones. Buckle up. This isnโ€™t just a movie; itโ€™s a ride.
