HBO’s acclaimed comedy series Entourage will come to a close this fall, but that doesn’t mean that the book on Vincent Chase is closing forever. There’s been talk of the series getting a film adaptation, and it doesn’t look like such talk will be simmering down anytime soon.
Doug Ellin, the creator and executive producer of Entourage, recently went on the record saying that the movie will happen but that he isn’t sure when it’ll come to fruition. Here’s his exact quote, courtesy of Deadline Hollywood:
"We’re going to do a movie. We’re going to do it, the question is when and how quickly. Hopefully we'll come down with an idea and make it happen."
Furthermore, Mark Wahlberg, who serves as an executive producer for the comedy alongside Ellin, pointed out R-rated comedies that performed phenomenally at the box office. The impressive awards pedigree, which includes three consecutive Emmy Awards for supporting player Jeremy Piven, doesn’t really hurt either.
