Art Imitates Art

If you watched Entourage last night you know that the boys might be in over their collective heads as the new Vinnie Chase vehicle Medellin, the story of cocaine king Pablo Escobar, is off to Cannes. We got to see the faux trailer for the faux film which leans heavily on its Scarface roots. Meanwhile in the real world, Smokin’ Joe Carnahan plans his own version of the Escobar story based on the Mark Bowden book Killing Pablo, after he finishes White Jazz of course or is it before? Either way, he’s got a lot on his plate.

Wonder what he thinks of all this Medellin business?
