In simpler times, long before Donald Trump announced he was running to be the 45th president of the United States, he was a New York business magnate whose favourite hobby was popping up in movies for no reason.

From playing himself in Home Alone 2 and Waldo’s father in The Little Rascals, you never knew where his perma-tanned head was going to appear next.

Despite appearing in so many films, Trump’s relationship with Hollywood is a tricky one. In the four years since he was elected US president, he has engaged in plenty of feuds with high-profile figures.

Celebrities such as Robert De Niro, Meryl Streep and Brad Pitt have publicly criticised the politician.

But as a prolific tweeter, Trump has rarely been one to miss an opportunity to shoot back in response. 

Now that his presidency is coming to an end, will Hollywood let Trump back in?

Here’s a full list of all the movies he has appeared in. Trump has 26 “acting” credits to his name – 11 of which are films.  

Ghosts Can’t Do it (1989)

Home Alone 2: Lost in New York (1992)

The Little Rascals (1994)

Across the Sea of Time (1995)

Eddie (1996)

The Associate (1996)

54 (1998)

Celebrity (1998)

Zoolander (2001)

Two Weeks Notice (2002)

Marmalade (2004)
