Michael Cohen, the former personal attorney of Donald Trump, is exploring a new venture in the entertainment industry with a television show concept titled “The Fixer.” Inspired by Trump’s successful series “The Apprentice,” the show aims to capitalize on Cohen’s notoriety and experience as a fixer.
The proposed show, tentatively titled “The Fixer,” would feature Cohen being placed in various business and other scenarios where he would utilize his problem-solving skills to ‘fix’ them, insiders revealed. This concept draws parallels to Trump’s role on “The Apprentice” where he was portrayed as the ultimate decision-maker and problem solver.
While confirming the premise of the show, Cohen stated that the project is still in its early stages. “Somebody came up with the concept, and we shot a three-minute teaser for it,” Cohen said, indicating that the idea is being developed.

Cohen is collaborating with Colin Whelan of Conveyor Media on the project. Whelan’s previous credits include producing “Joe Exotic: Tigers, Lies and Cover-Up” for Investigation Discovery, “Cooking On High” for Netflix, and “Bargain Mansions” for HGTV. Although Cohen confirmed their collaboration, Whelan declined to comment on their current working relationship.
Cohen, who was sentenced to three years in federal prison in 2018 after pleading guilty to charges of campaign finance fraud and tax evasion, is currently set to testify at Trump’s trial in Manhattan. He played a significant role in alleged hush money payments to porn star Stormy Daniels during the 2016 presidential campaign, aimed at keeping her silent about an affair with Trump, according to authorities.
Despite his past legal troubles, Cohen’s proposed television show reflects his intention to reinvent himself and capitalize on his notoriety and experience as Trump’s former personal attorney. Whether “The Fixer” will see the light of day remains to be seen, but it undoubtedly has the potential to generate significant interest given Cohen’s connection to one of the most controversial presidencies in recent memory.
