 Briarcliff Entertainment/YouTubeFox News rejected an ad for the controversial Donald Trump biopic The Apprentice that its distributor tried to purchase to run during the network's interview with Vice President Kamala Harris set to air Wednesday evening, a source close to the film's production team told The Daily Beast.

That final criteria, they noted, is what ruled out the ad for The Apprentice, which stars Sebastian Stan as Trump.
