June 01--Hollywood agent Ari Emanuel has offered to take charge of a film celebrating Donald Trump's presidential campaign that would air next month at the Republican National Convention, Trump said in a new interview.
"He's a very good friend of mine," Trump said about Emanuel in a story posted online Wednesday by The Hollywood Reporter. "He calls me a lot. I call him a lot and we talk. He's very political. Even though he's not political, he's political. He gets it."
Emanuel's agency William Morris Endeavor once represented Trump, according to Variety, but it's unclear what their business relationship is now. A William Morris spokesman did not immediately return a Tribune request for comment.
