The might of CAA notwithstanding, Hollywood is no longer a one-horse town and there are plenty of options for both up-and-coming actors and established A-listers seeking representation. William Morris Endeavor Entertainment, for example, is home to Ari Emanuel, a lean 48-year-old with short, greying hair – and the brother of White House chief of staff Rahm. Emanuel, whose long-term clients include Mark Wahlberg, Larry David and Martin Scorsese, is probably the best-known agent in Hollywood thanks to Ari Gold, the character he inspired in HBO's hit show Entourage. Like Gold, Emanuel has a repertoire of colourful phrases; his reputation also rests on a willingness to go to extremes to get the best deal for his clients.
尽管创新艺人经纪公司实力强大，但好莱坞已不再是单调乏味的小镇，无论是崭露头角的演员还是功成名就的大腕，在寻找代理方面都有充分的选择。例如，威廉•莫理斯奋进娱乐公司是阿里•伊曼纽尔(Ari Emanuel)的老巢，这位48岁的瘦削男人，一头灰白的头发——是白宫幕僚长拉姆•伊曼纽尔(Rahm. Emanuel)的兄弟，他的长期客户包括马克•沃尔伯格(Mark Wahlberg)、拉里•戴维(Larry David)、和马丁•斯科塞斯(Martin Scorsese)，由于美国家庭票房频道(HBO)的热门剧《明星伙伴》(Entourage)中阿里•高德(Ari Gold)这一角色，他或许是好莱坞最著名的经纪人，这个角色是以他为原型的。伊曼纽尔像高德一样口若悬河；他的声誉还在于他愿意不惜一切为客户争取最佳合约。
