 Entourage's Adrian Grenier talks about girls, free sunglasses and giving up Hollywood. HBO Tell us a little about what's going on with Vince in the upcoming season.
Bigger and better things. More money. More girls. More drama. He does have a love interest that comes back from his past - a celebrity who he was once with. He does settle down a little bit. HBO Now that the show is in its second season, do you notice a difference on the set? GRENIER It's exciting, because we're all more confident, more comfortable in our characters' shoes. And our producers and the writers are really confident and they're stepping it up a notch. As Kevin Connolly says, this season is wider in scope. The locations and the production is more ambitious, but also our relationships, the subtleties are revealed and expanded upon. HBO Vince is a Hollywood natural, everything seems to come easy to him. Do you feel that way yourself? GRENIER I think that Vince has a lot of me in him. Vince's attitude is he respects and understands where he came from and his roots. And while exploring the superficial world of Hollywood, he has to keep grounded. And he understands that if it all goes away, he could still go home to his friends and he could still be happy, because that's the most important thing. All the toys and all the parties and the girls are not that important. HBO So you could hang it all up and go home? GRENIER Could I? Sure. I don't want to. As Vince says about his toys, "I don't need 'em, but I like 'em." HBO Do you really hang out with your on-screen entourage? GRENIER We go out every once and a while. We've been working a lot, so we haven't had a lot of time to go nutty. But guaranteed, once this thing is over, you'll see a lot of us out together. HBO When you look at your life compared to a year or two ago, do you see much difference?
There's a lot more free stuff. I keep getting sunglasses. I don't wear sunglasses, but I feel like I have to take them. HBO What do you like about the Hollywood lifestyle? GRENIER I haven't really accepted it yet. It's all pretty new. I'm wary of getting too used to it, because you start expecting things. You start becoming coated with Diva-ness. I recognize now how celebrities I've known become divas, because they get pampered so much. They get babied so much, they get used to it. And then, when they don't get something, they cry. Ultimately, we're all just little children inside, and when you start spoiling little kids, they whine when they don't get what they expect. HBO Have you given thought to what you're going to do when you're on your hiatus from filming? GRENIER I have, I'm going to direct a short film I wrote, in July. And I actually bought a house in Brooklyn, which I'm going to be renovating. And I'll probably play some shows with my band. HBO The Honey Brothers? GRENIER The Honey Brothers. HBO What kind of music does your band play? GRENIER We are the masters of Appalachian glam rock, according to the Village Voice. We're coming out with an album, so we'll be out promoting it. HBO So your base is still New York? GRENIER I'm one with New York and New York is one with me. I grew up there; there's no escaping it. We're like Siamese twins, if you separate us, I'll die. |
