Sebastian Stan was hard at work on Thursday as he continued filming his Donald Trump biopic The Apprentice in Toronto.
The 41-year-old Avengers: Endgame star was pictured on the chilly Canadian day as he shot what appeared to be a funeral scene held at a cemetery.
He was surrounded by tall headstones while standing next to his costar Maria Bakalova, 27, who was first pictured on set late last month.
Stan was made up with the unmistakable hair the former president is infamous for, while Maria sported a thick blond wig to play his first wife Ivana Trump, who died in 2022.
The screen stars were also joined for the scene by the Tenet actor Martin Donovan, 66, who was briefly glimpsed on set as Donald’s father Fred Trump.

Stan was costumed with a classic black cashmere overcoat that reached down to his knees.
He wore it over a black two-piece suit with a white shirt and a black die, suggesting that he was paying his respects in the scene.
His shaggy blond wig was the biggest sign that he was playing Trump, and it was unclear if he also had any kind of facial prosthetics on to better get into character.
Maria looked elegant in a back fur coat with matching stockings and lustrous black heels.
Her blond hair was parted down the middle and styled in thick curls that rested on her shoulders.
It was a new look for the actress, who was pictured filming a street scene just days before Christmas while sporting a straight shoulder-length platinum blond hairdo.
The Bulgarian actress showed off an impressive resemblance to photos of Ivana Trump when she worked as a model in the ’70s in her earlier on-set appearances. However, it wasn’t clear exactly when the scene she and Sebastian were filming on Thursday was set.
Donovan was barely glimpsed in the scene, but he also had on a black overcoat.
Although he wasn’t featured in the scene, The Apprentice will also feature Succession star Jeremy Strong as the disgraced — and eventually disbarred — lawyer Roy Cohn, who served as a mentor and fixer for Trump in the 1970s and ’80s.
Production on The Apprentice began in late November.
The film follows Trump in the ’70s and ’80s as he attempts to establish his real estate empire on the back of his father Fred Trump’s properties.
The Apprentice is being directed by the Iranian filmmaker Ali Abbasi, who shot the critically acclaimed Persian-language crime thriller Holy Spider (2022).
Strong will be prominently featured as the younger Trump’s mentor, Roy Cohn, who came to prominence — and initial infamy — as the chief counsel of Senator Joseph McCarthy.
He was later disbarred in 1986 for defrauding a dying client.

Maria didn’t require much in the way of makeup or prosthetics to get into character as Ivana Trump, who died in 2022 at age 73. The film appears to follow her from when she was a model in the 1970s through her marriage to Trump
Cohn, a gay man, died just weeks after his disbarment from complications of AIDS, though he had denied that he had the disease up until his death.
He was later fictionalized in Tony Kushner’s iconic two-part play Angels In America, and later portrayed by Al Pacino in a film adaptation.
Maria broke out in the US with her hilarious and acclaimed role as Borat’s teenage daughter —which earned her an Oscar nomination, the first for a Bulgarian actress — and she followed that up by appearing in the critically approved horror satire Bodies Bodies Bodies.
She subsequently appeared in Judd Apatow’s pandemic-era comedy The Bubble and voiced a character in Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 3.
