The show's creator Doug Ellin is directing from his own screenplay. Ellin is also producing along with Mark Wahlberg, Stephen Levinson and Wayne Carmona serving as executive producer.
Filming is currently taking place in West Hollywood, Los Angeles. Reports have suggested that Neeson is likely to play himself in the cameo role, as he slots filming in between his ‘Non-Stop’ promotional duties.
‘Entourage’ joins the long list of movies Neeson is working on this year. His thriller ‘Non-Stop’ is out this week and he has just finished shooting ‘Run All Night’ with director Jaume Collet-Serra. Martin Scorsese’s long-delayed ‘Silence’ is also looming in the horizon and the actor is scheduled to begin shooting ‘Taken 3’ this spring. Neeson is currently in cinemas where he voices a cop with a split personality in ‘The Lego Movie’.
Universal Pictures upcoming American crime drama ‘A Walk Among The Tombstones’ will also feature Neeson as an ex-NYPD cop who now works as an unlicensed private investigator operating just outside the law. Seth McFarlane's ‘A Million Ways To Die In The West’, where Neeson stars as the villain, is due to be released in May.
