Entourage Hiatus Gigs – Kevin Connolly

Kevin Connolly will be hanging up his alter ego Eric Murphy to play the legendary King of Swing Benny Goodman in a yet to be titled film.

Connolly had the following to say about learning to dance and faking the clarinet in an interview on nypost.com:

The good thing about the clarinet is you only have to look like you know how to play…I still have to learn how to dance and they’ll be playing the music in the background.

Musician biopics are quite popular, and I’m looking forward to seeing Connolly become Goodman. He wouldn’t be the first Entourage cast member to play a famous musician, though. Kevin Dillon played The Doors’ John Densmore in Oliver Stone’s 1990s flick. If you could cast any other Entourage cast member in a musician biopic, whom would you select, and which famous musician would they play?
