Entourage is an American comedy-drama television series that premiered on HBO on July 18, 2004. The series was created and is largely written by Doug Ellin and chronicles the acting career of Vincent Chase, a young A-list movie star, and his childhood friends from Queens, New York City, as they navigate the unfamiliar terrain of Hollywood, California.

Mark Wahlberg and Stephen Levinson serve as the show's executive producers, and its premise is loosely based on Wahlberg's experiences as an up-and-coming film star. The series deals with themes of male friendship and modern-day situations in real-life Hollywood. The show is famously known for its array of guest stars, usually featuring at least two celebrities per episode. It is also heavily credited on the ability of its leading actors to form the male bond of friendship, which is a leading theme on the show. For this reason, the main actors chosen had to be of New York origin in order to bring the utmost authenticity to the bonds formed among the characters.

On August 7, 2010 HBO announced that Entourage would return in the Summer of 2011 for a shortened season, which will be the show's last. Although the number of episodes was not officially disclosed, the final season will likely contain six episodes. A film is also planned after the series ends.
