SERIES SYNOPSIS

HBO's Entourage, the hit comedy series takes a look at the day-to-day life of Vincent (Vince) Chase, a hot young actor in modern-day Hollywood, and his entourage. He's brought with him from their hometown in Queens, NY: manager Eric, half-brother Drama, and friend Turtle. The series draws on the experiences of industry insiders to illustrate both the heady excesses of today's celebrity lifestyle, as well as the difficulty of finding love and success in the fast track of show biz. Now that the boys are getting used to the perks of stardom, Eric, along with superagent Ari, keep Vince's star rising while making sound decisions for a long-lasting career in a world of fleeting fame.

Adrian Grenier stars as Vince. Kevin Connolly  plays Eric, Vince's closest confidant who's learning the rules of the business as he tries to help Vince make the right choices and keep his trajectory aimed high. Kevin Dillon plays Vince's half-brother Drama, whose own acting aspirations have been eclipsed by Vince's success. Jerry Ferrara plays Turtle, the house manager, who's always up for a good time. Jeremy Piven plays Ari, Vince's aggressive, high-powered agent, who clashes with Eric over his client's decisions.

 

STELLAN'S ROLE:

Stellan plays German director Verner, who's in charge of an action film called "Smokejumpers". His role is an obvious homage to real life "tough as nails" director Werner Herzog.

STELLAN'S COMMENTS:

"It was great fun and very different from making feature films. It's  frightening close to reality in Los Angeles".
