Amazon is reportedly considering a reboot of the “The Apprentice” with Donald Trump’s son, Donald Trump Jr., hosting the new iteration.

The Jeff Bezos-led company appears to be doubling down on its relationship with the Trumps after buying First Lady Melania Trump’s documentary, “Melania,” as a new report from the Wall Street Journal reports that Amazon executives are in the midst of talking about an “Apprentice” reboot.

Per the outlet, discussions surrounding the potential “Apprentice” reboot are in “the early stages.” Specifically, the Wall Street Journal highlighted that Amazon hasn’t even approached the Trumps yet about the show — but the hope is that the competition series will live on Amazon Prime Video.

A spokesperson for Amazon told the outlet, “Since our acquisition of MGM, we have had preliminary internal discussions about what’s next for ‘The Apprentice’ as a property.’”

Junior was a boardroom advisor and guest judge on 70+ episodes, which The Wrap is speculating is why he's being considered to host the reboot.



Bezos, can you grovel any more? What's next? A reality show where you give Trump blowjobs on your superyacht?
