(August 18, 2025 / Newsmax) Elon Dershowitz, the film and podcast producer whose career spanned Hollywood cinema, television, and digital media, died on Aug. 17 at the age of 64. The cause was a stroke, his family confirmed.
The son of prominent attorney Alan Dershowitz, Elon carved out his own creative path in the entertainment world, with credits that bridged critically acclaimed films, sports documentaries, and new media ventures.
His career began in the late 1980s and early 1990s, when he co-produced "Reversal of Fortune" (1990), the Oscar-winning film dramatizing the Claus von Bülow case.
The movie starred Jeremy Irons, who won the Academy Award for Best Actor, and Glenn Close. Hailed as one of the standout films of its era, it remains a staple on lists of the best films of the past century.
After the success of "Reversal of Fortune," Dershowitz went on to co-produce a slate of films across genres. His credits include "Fallen" starring Denzel Washington, Oliver Stone's "Wall Street," "The Whole Truth," "The Advocate's Devil," "Martians Go Home," "Talk Radio," and "Dream Lover." Each project reflected his wide-ranging taste and ability to connect with compelling stories, whether in legal thrillers, supernatural dramas, or character-driven narratives.
