'Entourage' creator Doug Elin wants disgraced Representative Anthony Weiner to appear on the HBO series.According to the Hollywood Reporter, Elin made the request before the New York congressman resigned following a lewd photo scandal. Elin said he's gotten no response from Weiner.
A few months ago Elin tried to get fired 'Two and a Half Men' star Charlie Sheen to appear on 'Entourage.' The series has had many notable guest stars over the years, including Mandy Moore, Bob Saget and Gary Busey.

When Darren Aronofsky first approached Natalie Portman to star in 'Black Swan' a decade ago, she was excited by the opportunity to work with the director, and by the chance to draw upon dance experience from when she was a child, Portman said on 'Good Morning America' (weekdays, 7AM ET on ABC).Rourke's Globes speech makes NBC's censors' heads explode - VIDEO

See that picture to the right? That's Mickey Rourke accepting his Golden Globe for Best Actor in a Drama for The Wrestler... with his hand down his pants. But that's just the beginning of the fun we heard and saw during his acceptance speech, which I'm sure made the steam come out of the ears of NBC's standards and practices folks.Suffice to say, Rourke made the most interesting speech of the night. And by "interesting," I'm not even talking about his striped hair or the beard that makes his boxing-worn face look even weirder. No, all he had to do was open his mouth. He said the word "balls" twice, and then said something else that sounded like it was beeped.
Finally, he affectionately called his Wrestler director, Darren Aronofsky, a "tough son of a bitch," prompting Aronofsky to kiddingly flip Rourke the finger... on camera.

I think it's official now: American Movie Classics has become the new hip network to watch. And that's something that we couldn't have predicted just a couple of years ago.
After bringing the critically-acclaimed Mad Men to the network and the new series Breaking Bad (not to mention Hustle), AMC has announced that director Darren Aronofsky (Pi, Requiem For A Dream,The Fountain) is developing a new series for the cable network titled Riverview Towers, about a family that moves into an apartment complex and spooky things start to happen.
