which is a continuation of the eponymous HBO series – has confessed portraying the character left him ”incredibly exhausted” as many of the scenes required him to be ”angry” and give into his ”dark side”.

The ‘Mr Selfridge’ star added he has found the role to be both a ”blessing” and a ”curse” but insists he is ”grateful” to have been able to take on the character once again. He added: ”That’s just the way life is. So the character was a blessing and a curse in the way that it is so fun to play him.

And he is unstable. It’s cathartic, but at the same time, it’s incredibly draining. But I am so grateful to be able to ride with him again in the movie.” ‘Entourage’ the movie is scheduled to hit cinemas on 12 June 2015.
