Icahn: The Restless Billionaire
Nominated for Outstanding Business and Economic Documentary at the 2023 News & Documentary Emmy Awards, Icahn: The Restless Billionaire explores the fascinating contradictions at the heart of the famed financier, Carl Icahn, who amassed close to $20 billion dollars over the last half century and was at the forefront of some of the most legendary business deals of our times.

In his own words and with commentary from family members, journalists, and fellow titans of industry, the HBO documentary probes Icahn’s humble roots, his business acumen, and his obsessive drive to stay atop America’s corporate hierarchy.
