COMEDY CENTRAL - Tuesday 21 September, 8.00pm

For Vince, Eric, Drama and Turtle, life in Hollywood's fast lane can be an intoxicating ride. By the start of Season 4, in fact, Eric and Vince have taken on new roles - as producers. Will their film be critically hailed as a masterpiece or will it end up on the trash heap of Tinseltown dreams?

The producers of Entourage are reportedly developing a new drama series for HBO based in the adult entertainment industry.

Mark Wahlberg and Stephen Levinson are working alongside author James Frey in developing the one-hour pilot which would boast both mainstream actors and real-life porn stars.

The series would focus on a video company which is growing increasingly worried from the threat of the internet, with a plot involving a girl from middle America who is encouraged by her boyfriend to seek stardom in LA.

"We're going to make a sprawling epic about the porn business in LA," said Frey. "We're going to tell the type of stories no one else has told before, and go places no one has gone before."
