According to Hypable, the Entourage movie is expected to start filming in January 2013. Series creator Doug Ellin is currently working on a script.
The Entourage TV show aired for eight seasons on HBO before ending last summer. When the final season was announced, it was said that a feature film was being planned as a follow-up. There’s been mixed news since then.
While making a recent appearance on The Today Show, Entourage executive producer Mark Wahlberg shared that the script was being written and that the feature was being fast-tracked for a release.
Wahlberg previously told GQ about what he envisioned for the film. He said “I think a 90-minute movie of sheer craziness—the guys getting back to just being about the guys, you know? Lose the ladies. Go crazy. Give people what they want.”
Series co-star Jeremy Piven shared what he had in mind, noting, “We’re teed up for a movie in a way that, you know, Ari has this conundrum that he’s facing, which is either to rule the world or to honor his love to his wife.”
