Barack Obama 'agrees to Entourage movie cameo'

Entourage star Adrian Grenier, who played Vince in the HBO series, made the claim in a post on his Facebook page.
He uploaded a photograph of himself with the President and suggested that he had asked the Commander-in-Chief to appear in the upcoming movie.
"I promised to make the Entourage movie if he would do a cameo," Grenier claimed. "He agreed. Seriously."
Entourage star Jerry Ferrara said in 2009 that Obama was a fan of the show and joked that it would remain on air as long as he was in the White House.
Entourage actually aired its final season last year but the show's creator Doug Ellin promised that a movie based on the show was in the works.
Star Rex Lee recently said that a big-screen outing is even more likely after HBO decided not to pick up Ellin's pilot 40.
British band The Wanted have also been linked to a cameo in a potential Entourage movie.
Christian-Mark David Cawley - Take it easy. It was most likely a flippant comment, not a binding contract. Either way, if Obama DID make a cameo, it likely wouldn't occupy any of his time as they'd schedule it so that when he gets off Air Force One they film as he disembarks.
You have no idea how tight his schedule is and how hard he works. He's got his priorities straight.

He was offered a CEO position - not head of the studio, he already turned that position down and passed in to Dana Gordon. So he'd most likely be running a large, multi-faceted corporation. Remember the conversations between Ari and John (the one who decided the studio head positions)? The studio was only a small percentage of the corporations' revenues.

With a serious job, you also need to lighten up, and whats wrong with the bloke having a little fun, as a small time role in the movie?

So, he's not allowed to have a life? Or do anything beyond running the country. Don't you think that's a bit blinkered not to mention incredibly unreasonable?

That will never, ever happen. His PR people wouldn't let it.
