Ellin's new pilot, 'Ramble On,' features Kevin Connolly and Kevin Dillon pursuing an entertainment industry hustle, with a surprise appearance by Charlie Sheen playing a version of himself, offering a 'get-out-of-jail-free card'.
Despite the 'Entourage' movie's lukewarm reception, the show has experienced a resurgence in popularity during the pandemic, with Ellin, Connolly, and Dillon launching the popular 'Victory the Podcast,' which surpassed the original series' episode count.
