"Entourage creator Doug Ellin has revealed that he almost cast Seth Rogen in the series. The pair have had a feud since Rogen suggested that Entourage wasn&amp;#039;t funny in a 2008 interview. Ellin later insulted the comedian in the show by writing a scene in which Turtle (Jerry Ferrara) claims that Rogen&amp;#039;s &amp;quot;ugliness is oddly fascinating&amp;quot;. However, Ellin has now told TV Guide that he originally considered Rogen for the role of Turtle. &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;m a fan of Rogen&amp;#039;s,&amp;quot; he said. &amp;quot;I had seen him in Undeclared, and I said to our casting director, &amp;#039;There&amp;#039;s a Midwestern kind of guy who I think would be funny for this show&amp;#039;. But then we found Jerry, so we went that way.&amp;quot; Ellin also admitted that he insulted Rogen as a form of revenge, saying: &amp;quot;If he&amp;#039;s going to say the show sucks, I&amp;#039;m going to say he&amp;#039;s ugly.&amp;quot; Entourage returns for its seventh season on June 27 at 10.30pm on HBO.
