It's the way Hollywood works now- even before the Entourage movie hits theaters this summer, Entourage 2 is already being discussed. David Ellin, who wrote and directed the upcoming comedy, is talking about how great it felt to get everyone together for an Entourage movie, and how much he'd like to do the same thing again for a sequel.
"It's like high school," said the filmmaker. "Nothing changed." Although apparently, excitement for an Entourage movie weren't always there: "I took a year. I didn't know if there was really an appetite for it. But Mark told me, 'If you write this script, I guarantee I'll get it made.' " And if the first film makes a handsome chunk of change? "I'd do 20 of 'em," the director revealed.
Meanwhile, the current celebrity cameo count for the Entourage movie is spiraling upwards- right now, it's somewhere close to 30. Here's the full list so far (and it's as enormous as you'd think):
Liam Neeson, Mark Wahlberg, Jessica Alba, Ed O'Neill, Kelsey Grammer, Bob Saget, George Takei, Calvin Harris, Common, David Spade, Jarret Stoll, T.I., David Faustino, Piers Morgan, Andrew Dice Clay, Armie Hammer, Gary Busey, Rob Gronkowski, Jon Favreau, Julian Edelman, Warren Buffett, Domenico Vacca, Tom Brady, Mark Cuban, Mike Richards, Russell Wilson, Pharrell Williams, Ronda Rousey, Michael Strahan, Greg Louganis.
Huge, isn't it? For all anyone knows, that might not even be the full list- there could be even more secret celebs snuck in there when Entourage finally makes it into theaters this summer. The film stars Adrian Genier, Jeremy Piven, Kevin Connolly, Kevin Dillon and Johnny Ferrara, and will pick up right where the HBO series left off, with Vincent Chase directing his first film- a blockbuster with a $100 million budget. Entourage and its horde of celebrity of cameos will stampede into theaters on June 3, 2015.
