Amazon has paid $40 million for a documentary of Melania Trump’s life story in Jeff Bezos’s latest attempt to ingratiate himself with the president-elect.

Amazon is forking over $40 million for the licensing rights to a documentary about incoming First Lady Melania Trump directed by alleged sexual harasser Brett Ratner, according to a report. The as-yet-untitled film will receive a small theatrical release before it appears on the e-commerce giant’s streaming platform,

News of the documentary was first broken by Semafor, which noted that the production has already begun shooting and is expected to enjoy a brief theatrical run before coming to Amazon’s streaming service,

Amazon founder and executive chairman Jeff Bezos “took a personal interest in the doc,” a source tells Page Six.

Melania Trump is the focus of a new documentary that's set for release by Amazon Prime Video later this year, the company announced Sunday.
