Jeremy Piven talks his return as Ari Gold for 'Entourage' movie

Jeremy Piven, who played Ari Gold in HBO’s hit series Entourage, has been told he will be coming back as this character for the upcoming Entourage movie, which will be released later this year.

“I really had left him behind and was embracing, am embracing this entire journey,” Piven told reporters at the Television Critics Association winter previews. “So, it required me to be a little schizophrenic.”

Since it has been three years since the show went off the air, Piven has found other, quite different, roles to play. He has been playing Harry Selfridge in Mr. Selfridge on PBS. The second season of this show will be launching Mar. 30.

Piven told TV writers at The Daily News, “They’re obviously both Americans and entrepreneurs in their own way. Ari has an anger disorder…He’s constantly reactive and overly emotionally invested. If you’re screaming for 12 to 14 hours a day and breaking computers, your body thinks it’s real, you know?” Piven then went on to explain how his other character Harry is the polar opposite, a man with a huge heart.

Piven thought he had left Ari Gold behind but understands that going back requires a little schizophrenia, but he’s looking forward to it. Piven called the script for the Entourage movie “really good” and is ready to “step back into the modern-day designer shoes and custom-made suits of Ari Gold.”

Piven can’t release much about what is going to happen in the movie, but he is definitely looking forward to it.
