Deadline reports that Rex Lee has formally signed on to reprise the role of Lloyd, the gay Chinese-American assistant to super agent Ari Gold (Jeremy Piven) in the upcoming film adaptation of the HBO series "Entourage".
Series creator Doug Ellin
wrote the script from which he is due to direct. The film would
continue to follow the Hollywood lives of actor Vincent Chase, his
manager and agent, his under-appreciated TV actor brother and the
childhood pal/driver who form his inner circle. The story starts six
months after the TV series left off.
Deals to return have been reached with the entire cast - Adrian Grenier, Kevin Connolly, Kevin Dillon, Jerry Ferrara, and Jeremy Piven
Billy Bob Thornton will play a billionaire cowboy-turned-film financier who
sends his twenty-something son to keep an eye on things on set of the
latest flick he’s financing - Vincent Chase's upcoming big-budget
Dracula movie.
Perrey Reeves is to reprise her role of Melissa Gold, the long-suffering high-society wife of Ari. Constance Zimmer will return as Dana Gordon, an abrasive movie executive who often
butted heads with Ari and, at one time, dated him.
Sports Illustrated model Kate Upton would play Chase's girlfriend in the pic.
The movie is currently shooting around Los
Angeles.
