Ari Emanuel: Roll the Calls - Book Tour tickets

Join us for an evening with Ari Emanuel as he discusses his new memoir, Roll the Calls, in conversation. A copy of the book is included with your ticket.

For decades, Ari Emanuel has shaped the entertainment industry from behind the scenes — representing some of the world’s biggest stars, engineering blockbuster deals, and redefining what it means to be a Hollywood super-agent. Yet, despite his outsized influence — and serving as the real-life inspiration for television’s iconic Ari Gold — much of his own story has remained untold.

In this candid conversation, Emanuel discusses his new take-no-prisoners memoir, Roll the Calls, reflecting on the triumphs, failures, relationships, and lessons that have defined his extraordinary career. From growing up in Chicagoland to becoming one of Hollywood’s most formidable power brokers, he explores ambition, leadership, risk-taking, resilience, and what it takes to succeed in an industry defined by constant change. The conversation offers a rare look at the man behind the deals — and the persistence and power moves that helped transform modern Hollywood.
