from www.digitalspy.co.uk – Adult film star Sasha Grey has landed a role in Entourage.
Grey will appear in several episodes of the upcoming seventh season as herself, TV Guide Magazine reports.
She will have a major role in the drama as a love interest for Vince Chase (Adrian Grenier).
The show’s creator Doug Ellin explained that he had been impressed with Grey when he saw her in Steven Soderbergh’s 2009 movie The Girlfriend Experience.
“I think Sasha’s going to have a very successful transition,” he said. “Sasha’s the biggest porn star in the world right now, and when Soderbergh casts her as the lead of his movie, I take notice. I wouldn’t have done this storyline if Sasha passed. Luckily she was okay with doing it.”
Ellin added that Grey will meet Vince in a bar during the fifth episode and will stay for the remainder of the season. She may also return for the show’s eighth and final run.
“I think they’re going to have a very interesting relationship,” he said.
The seventh season of Entourage premieres on June 27 at 10/9c on HBO.
