- Synopsis:
'Final 24' is a fresh and revealing alternative biography series that unlocks the hidden secrets, psychological flaws and trigger events that led to the tragic deaths of eight global icons. Each episode maps out the final 24 hours of a different celebrity's life. Weaving in and out of this central narrative is the celebrity's back-story, which lays bare the threads of fate that led inextricably from childhood to the moment of death. Telling interviews with loved ones and confidantes combined with high-end dramatic re-enactments and archival material illuminate these compelling life (and death) stories. These are no ordinary biographies. These are psychological detective stories attempting to uncover the mystery of why the celebrity died.
After a tough day on set, Hollywood golden boy Rived Phoenix hits L.A.'s fashionable nightclub The Viper Room. He's looking forward to getting on stage and jamming with his friends. This is a moment he's been waiting for. When the plan changes, a disappointed Phoenix ingests a lethal cocktail of drugs, staggers outside and collapses on the sidewalk. Paramedics are unable to revive him and he dies shortly after. 'Final 24' recreates River Phoenix's last day to tell the tragic tale of a young man whose short life was dominated by the constant pressure to perform.- Actors:
