We've seen the first four episodes of Ballers and really enjoyed it. It's pretty much Entourage by way of the NFL, and gives The Rock a chance to play a role he wouldn't be an obvious choice for on the big screen.
It seems that HBO agree and have renewed the show for a second season just 3 episodes in.
“The charismatic and hugely talented Dwayne Johnson, along with the rest of the Ballers cast, has truly struck a chord with the HBO audience. We are thrilled with the overwhelming response the series has received and look forward to another exciting season.” said HBO President Michael Lombardo in a statement.
Keep an eye on Sky Atlantic for Irish times, but fans of Entourage, The Rock and US sports should find plenty here to enjoy.
