"I’m honored to be working with Amazon — they’ve been great partners from the minute we started to negotiate the deal, through production and now as we gear up for the film’s release," Beckman told Fox News Digital.
"Speaking of the deal, there has been so much speculation in the press on the bidding and how we ended up with Amazon, that we’re at a point where it’s worth clarifying a few things," Beckman said.
First, Beckman told Fox News Digital that some bidders were "interested only in a film, and others only in a series."
"Amazon ended up bidding on both, and checked all the boxes we were looking for, as they could also deliver a theatrical film release," Beckman explained.
Beckman stressed that he negotiated the deal on behalf of the first lady while dealing with "all the studios directly."

"She is giving the audience unprecedented access to her life — and to any first lady's life — during this 20-day period," a source familiar with the planning of the film told Fox News Digital.
Fox News exclusively obtained the trailer in December 2025, which opens with the first lady walking into the U.S. Capitol rotunda ahead of her husband's second inauguration. She looks to the camera in her now-iconic inauguration outfit, and says: "Here we go again."
The trailer jumps from the first lady and president at the inauguration; to standing together outside of Mar-a-Lago; behind-the-scenes of the inauguration showing Barron Trump and Melania Trump’s father; to a series of images of the first lady; Air Force One; the presidential seal and more.
The famous Metro Goldwyn Mayer (MGM) lion roars and takes over the screen.
The trailer then shows Melania Trump entering a room where President Trump stands at a podium during a meeting and is rehearsing a speech.

"My proudest legacy will be that of peacemaker," Trump said.
The first lady breaks in and says: "Peacemaker and unifier."
The trailer shows the first lady getting out of a vehicle, sporting a pair of black stiletto boots, and jumping to the East Wing residence, where she stands in her stunning white and black inaugural ball gown, and smiles at the camera.
The trailer invites the audience to "witness history in the making."
The trailer also shows the first lady reviewing materials with staff and more.
It cuts to a scene of Melania Trump asking a security detail, "Is it safe?" and the agent confirming "it is safe," before the film cuts to sirens and the motorcade driving through a city.
"20 days to become first lady of the United States," the trailer says.
"Everyone wants to know," Melania Trump says. "So here it is."
The trailer ends with Melania Trump calling "Mr. President" to say "congratulations."
"Did you watch it?" President Trump says through the phone.

"I did not. Yeah, I will see it on the news," Melania Trump says.
The launch of the film comes a year after the release of her first-ever book, "Melania." The memoir presents an intimate portrait of Melania Trump and includes personal stories and family photos she had not previously shared with the public.
"Melania" has been at the top of The New York Times’ best-sellers list since its release to the public.

Upon the release of the memoir in 2024, the first lady told Fox News Digital that writing her story was "an amazing journey filled with emotional highs and lows."
"Each story shaped me into who I am today," she said. "Although daunting at times, the process has been incredibly rewarding, reminding me of my strength, and the beauty of sharing my truth."
"Melania" is the first lady’s first book. She released the original book along with a special collector’s edition that includes photos hand-selected by the first lady, many of which she photographed herself of her home and of various trips she has taken around the world.
