Once Game Of Thrones and Veep come to end by early summer, we have something else to look forward to. And that it, HBO’s new series Ballers. Premiering alongside True Detective and The Brink on June 21st.
The testosterone-fueled show focuses on Dwayne Johnson — a former professional football player that turns into a financial adviser, who struggles with being retired while still hanging around current pros, which puts his mind in a mental circus. In addition, Rob Corddry (The Daily Show, Children’s Hospital, Hot Tub Time Machine) plays his comedic partner. Expect the show to have that same feel as Entourage since Mark Wahlberg is producing and teamed back up with Stephen Levinson — who wrote three episodes of Entourage.
