Since Entourage’s HBO finale in 2011, getting high on Sunday nights without Turtle and the gang has been odd. While getting high to watch dragons and ice-zombies has been a nice replacement, Entourage has been missed.
Because even though Vince’s crew boasts immense riches and parties with Bob Saget, they were our smoke buddies for seven years. And even though they’re so Hollywood, their New York roots make them relatable.
Last week, the long awaited Entourage movie (coming in June 2015) became a reality for fans with the release of an intriguing trailer that features Vince starring as an EDM DJ in a movie he’s directing himself, which is…interesting.
