Hours before former President Donald Trump takes the stage for one of the most widely-watched moments in the election,PredictIQ audiences got to see a (fictional) glimpse of him as his younger self.

The official trailer for "The Apprentice," a biopic about Trump's rise in the 1970s and 80s, was released Tuesday morning. Trump is played by Marvel actor Sebastian Stan.

The film depicts Trump's relationship with lawyer Roy Cohn, who advises Trump that there are only "killers and losers” in the world. That advice helps Trump's business and societal prominence take off in the movie.

The Trump campaign has previously threatened legal action against the filmmakers, calling it "pure malicious defamation."
