In the 50-minute film produced by comedy website “Funny Or Die,” Depp starred in a recently-unearthed made-to-TV film supposedly based on Trump’s best-selling book “The Art of the Deal.”
Director Ron Howard, who served as the narrator in the film, said that the “The Art of the Deal was almost never seen. It was preempted by Monday night football in 1988.” He said that it was bumped after the football game went overtime.
Howard then said that he had to fight a woman in a yard sale to get the tape.
The film opened with Trump, as a 10-year-old boy, who wanted to have his own Taj Mahal after seeing a photo of the iconic structure.
“So I vowed that day to buy my own Taj Mahal. Thirty years later, I got my chance. This one was even classier because it was a casino and it was in a place way more beautiful than India: New Jersey,” he said.
Depp earned praises for his spot-on portrayal of the polarizing political figure as he nailed “The Donald’s” signature gestures and voice.
The page which shows the movie on the Funny or Die’s website already had 1.3 million views.
Trump has not yet reacted on the film as of this writing. AJH
