Mark Wahlberg Says ‘Entourage’ Movie is Happening

Posted by andPOP Staff on July 29th, 2011

Rumors have been circulating for years that Entourage would become a movie. Now it looks more certain than ever that it’s going to happen, considering the HBO series is just finishing its last season.

During a recent press tour, creator Mark Wahlberg and executive producer Doug Ellin more or less said it’s a sure thing. “If I had to finance it myself, I would do it,” Wahlberg said. Ellin was even more direct.

“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,” said Ellin.

We are concerned about the plot of the movie. How do you change this ongoing series into a 2 hour story? Also will it involve the same cast? All these questions are yet to be answered. However even if this movie sucks, with the loyalty of the Entourage audience and the star power of Wahlberg, it will easily make some records at the box office.

‘Curb Your Enthusiasm’s’ Leon Wants Spinoff

Posted by andPOP Staff on July 19th, 2011

We love Leon on Curb Your Enthusiasm, but is he worthy of a spinoff? Well there are suggestions of that on the Twittersvere.

Coincidentally, TMZ caught up with JB Smoove who plays Leon on Curb. Not surprisingly JB is in favor of the idea. He was also asked if Leon’s character is based on JB. JB replied that he wasn’t worthy to carry Leon’s jockstrap.

As far as suggested names for Leon’s show? JB suggested “The Ruccus” or “That’s How We Dooze It.”

In the spirit of Leon, below are some of our favorite Leon clips.

Take a listen below. If you have, at any moment, ever doubted Gaga’s singing capabilities, you can take that back right about now. Such power, such soul!

Ed Harris to Star as John McCain

Posted by Lauren Treihaft on March 24th, 2011

We have already reported that Julianne Moore will be starring as Sarah Palin in the upcoming HBO film, based on the best-selling book, Game Change. EW.com, reports that Ed Harris (A History of Violence, Stepmom) has been cast as John McCain.

The film will be a portrayal of the controversial 2008 election. There is no word as to who will be playing Barack Obama or Hilary Clinton but surely they will be well known and possibly Academy Award nominated actors, like Ed Harris.

The film will attempt to truthfully document the politics and publicity surrounding the election. This month HBO’s Mildred Pierce will be released, judging by the quality of the show and its popularity will give a good indication as to what Game Change may be like.

Charlie Sheen Gets $5 Million Pay Day from HBO

Posted by andPOP Staff on February 25th, 2011

Charlie Sheen is not taking the news that “Two and a Half Men” would be cancelled well. He is so pissed that he claims to be moving to HBO.

In a message to RadarOnline.com, Sheen called the decision “crazy” and “sad” and said that he was moving to HBO to do his own half-hour show titled ‘Sheen’s Corner.’ The deal would reportedly get him $5 million for an episode.

Sheen reportedly said, “I’m close to securing a deal with HBO for a 10 show guarantee. It will be epic, all types of guests, and we will focus on the truth and the absurd!” Radar notes that HBO could not be contacted for comment.

So is Charlie bull sh**ing or do you think HBO is a real alternative?

Posted by Angelina Irinici on February 11th, 2010

It is not doubt that Kid Cudi has reached much success in the music industry in a short period of time. He has had three Grammy nominations and is featured on tracks with the likes of Jay-Z, Kanye West and Shakira. Now, Cudi is ready to take his success to a new level, as he is ready to hit the big screen.

According to MTVnews.com, Cudi, whose given name is Scott Mescudi, is making his acting debut in HBO’s new show “How to Make It in America”.

“The fact that everybody is finally getting to see me act and stuff is part of my dream coming true. It’s just really dope, and people could see me be silly. My album was so deep and serious, and that was just me showing my dark side,” Cudi said. “Acting is therapeutic — just being able to pretend to be somebody else for a little bit, it’s dope.”

Jamie-Lynn Sigler and Jerry Ferrara Breakup?

Posted by Robert Ostfield on December 22nd, 2009

Jamie-Lynn Sigler Say it isn’t so? E!Online is reporting that real life Entourage couple Jamie-Lynn Sigler and Jerry Ferrara have called it quits. The couple had met on the set of the HBO show, however in September 2008 it surfaced that in real life the couple were dating. E!Online tried to get a comment from Ferrara’s representative about the possible breakup, who had this to say, “I don’t know anything about that. It’s news to me if it’s true.”.

So if this news ends up being true, it is certainly a let down for all the Entourage fans out there. Additionally this comes as a shock as very recently reports surfaced that Sigler and Ferrara were looking to buy a home together in the Hollywood Hills.

Posted by Emma Renda on December 14th, 2009

Flight of the ConchordsAfter just two hilarious seasons, Flight of the Conchords is ending its television run.

In an announcement on their website, Bret McKenzie and  Jermaine Clement informed fans they would not be going ahead with production of the third season of the HBO television series, one that garnered them two Emmy nominations earlier this year.

We’d like to thank everyone who helped make the show and also everyone who watched it.”

“While the characters Bret and Jemaine will no longer be around, the real Bret and Jemaine will continue to exist.’’

Entourage Season 6 Finale’s ‘Matt Damon Bonus Scene’

Posted by Jeremy Singer on October 7th, 2009

Another season cometh and went for HBO’s Entourage, and what ironically made the season finale was one of the celebrity cameo appearances by Oscar winner Matt Damon- who played himself trying to “Jason-Bourne” Vince into donating money to his Children’s Charity.

It’s pretty clear that Damon’s performance was truly a gut-buster. I personally was on the couch cracking up seeing him repeatedly stick-arm Vince into joining the foundation, donating money, and then donating more money.

Though the real performance came in the post-episode credits where we see Damon really lose a gasket. Check it out.
