If you're a huge sports fan, then you should definitely watch the "Entourage" movie. Why? Because more than 20 of the biggest athletes in the world will have cameos in the film adaptation of the popular HBO series as reported by TMZ.
Some of the famous athletes that made a cameo in the movie are American football stars Russell Wilson, Rob Gronkowski and Julian Edelman. It is awesome seeing these sports superstars take time out from their careers and do some acting.
Unfortunately, having athletes on the set of the "Entourage" movie also have its consequences. Kevin Connolly, who stars as Eric Murphy, got into a freak accident that involved the Seattle Seahawks quarterback. Deadline reported that the actor broke his leg in two places while playing football on set with Russell Wilson.
To let everyone know that he is fine, Connolly posted his photo with the football star on Twitter. He captioned the photo, "Pain management advice from a Super Bowl champ!!! #brokenleg @DangeRussWilson" Apart from getting support from Wilson, Gronkowski and Edelman were also there to encourage the actor to tough it up.
The Post Game reported Doug Ellin saying, "They wanted to shoot him up something to get him to keep going." The director also revealed, "Kevin was brave enough to go another three days with a double fracture in his leg that ultimately required surgery, and he was down for about eight weeks."
The HBO series have welcomed some famous athletes in the past from basketball superstar Kobe Bryant and NY Yankees player Mark Teixeira to NFL heartthrob Tom Brady. Doug Ellin shared his experience working with New England Patriots quarterback.
He said, "Getting Tom Brady to come in and save the day when Eli Manning screwed me pretty badly." Ellin added, "We were in serious trouble because Eli Manning told me he was doing it and at the last second he bailed on me." Thankfully, Brady was a real sport for doing a cameo in the TV show.
