Release Date and Context

Melania, The Series is slated to release on Friday, November 20th on Prime Video. The platform also hosts her previous documentary movie.

Earlier this year, the Melania documentary faced negative reviews from critics. Although it earned more than expected at the opening weekend box office, its revenue was significantly less than what Amazon paid for it.

In May, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos defended the documentary movie, stating it was not a way to “buy influence” into Trump’s White House. Donald Trump also commented on the earlier film, saying the doc was “not good” for their relationship.
