Comedian Vanessa Gonzalez will debut her stand-up special ‘Mamona’ on Hulu on September 15, showcasing her upbringing and cultural identity.
Jeremy Piven and Adrian Grenier, stars of HBO's 'Entourage,' reunite for a new ad for Jake Paul’s Betr app after 11 years.

Actors Jeremy Piven and Adrian Grenier, known for their roles as Ari Gold and Vince Chase respectively in HBO's Entourage, have reunited after 11 years in a new advertisement for Jake Paul’s gambling app, Betr. This collaboration was first announced by Variety on September 8, 2026, marking a moment of nostalgia for fans longing for any glimpse of the beloved duo on screen.
In the three-minute ad, Piven’s character is animated and energetic, staying true to his Ari Gold persona, as he pulls up to a Miami mansion party in a sleek sports car. The spot features familiar humor, including Piven’s comedic quips aimed at the security staff, encapsulating the essence of his original character. He is on a quest to find Grenier’s character, culminating in a humorous pitch where Piven suggests Grenier take on the role of a jewel thief in a fictional project — leading to Grenier pitching himself as the new face of the Betr app.
While Piven and Grenier do not reprise their Entourage roles, their established chemistry is evident, showcasing why fans are excited about their reunion.
The ad marks the actors’ first appearance together since the release of the 2015 Entourage movie, which concluded a successful eight-season run for the dynamic series. Prior to this collaboration, the two last connected earlier in 2026, when Grenier surprised Piven at one of his comedy shows in Austin. Their long-standing friendship has made any screen collaboration a moment to celebrate for fans.
Despite the excitement surrounding this ad, there has been no official announcement regarding a revival of Entourage. Series creator Doug Ellin has mentioned that he does not currently invest time in ideas unless there is financial motivation. While Grenier and Piven have expressed openness to returning to their iconic roles, most discussions about an actual reboot remain speculative. Notably, Ellin dismissed the notion of a spinoff earlier in September on the Joe Vulpis Podcast, indicating that Entourage fans might need to temper their hopes for a revival.
In recent comments, Grenier mentioned that he and Piven would be ready should the opportunity arise, hinting at the ongoing interest in expanding their characters' narratives. However, it’s important to note that any concrete development of an Entourage sequel or spinoff has not been announced.
The reunion of Piven and Grenier, even in an ad, provides a nostalgic hit for fans of Entourage. Their chemistry and comedic timing resonate throughout, reminding viewers of why the show achieved such popularity. While a revival remains unlikely according to the creator, this advertisement introduces their iconic relationship to a new generation and checks in with long-time fans, indicating a sustained interest in these characters.
