Jeremy Piven Leaving “Entourage” - Replacement Character is Cast

Entourage Cast

Jeremy Piven is who many consider to be the star of HBO’s hit comedy, “Entourage”, but he sees things differently. He sees himself as the star of the entire network. He has decided that it is time for him to move on to bigger and better things. Piven, who’s last show, “Cupid”, were he played - yep you guessed it, Cupid - was almost immediately cancelled, has decided that it is time that for him to move on and become a real Hollywood leading man.

HBO representative, Harry Balsanga, told us briefly about character, Jeremy Piven’s departure, and his replacement:

You see, Ari Gold was a great character, and Jeremy was awesome before his head got so big, and his hair started running away…Anyhow, we finally got ahold of the guy who we wanted to play Ari orignially - Joe Rogan. When we couldn’t get Rogan before, we decided to just use the guy who looked most like him.

Joe Rogan

Rogan is best known for his work on such television shows as: Fear Factor, NewsRadio, and The Man Show. He apparently is extremely excited about the oppurtunity, but everything that he said about the role is not safe for us to right on the television. As far as his comments on Piven, they are also a little to raunchy for us to post. Hopefully, we will be able to get a few more words from him when we speak next, and hopefully, he’ll be sober.

Piven, and the rest of the cast were unavailable for comment, as they were busy making Piven’s last episode. Which is too bad, but we’ve got a guess as to what happens - Turtle drives around a car, Vinnie talks to some girls, Ari swears into his cell phone, Drama gets rejected from a movie role, and Eric has a moral dilemma. I know that it sounds familiar, eerily reminiscient of every episode of “Entourage” right?

(On a personal note: Piven punches like a girl.)
