AceShowbiz - Adrian Grenier has just scored a new acting gig, a major part on Disney Junior's new animated series, "Miles from Tomorrowland". The Vincent Chase of HBO's "Entourage" is slated to play the role of Captain Joe Callisto, the titular character Miles' uncle.
The so-called "intergalactic adventure series" was described by E! News to incorporate "unique space and science facts into storylines that chart the outer space missions of young adventurer Miles Callisto (Cullen McCarthy) and his family as they help connect the galaxy on behalf of the Tomorrowland Transit Authority." The series witnesses Grenier teaming up with his childhood friend Sascha Paladino who served as its creator. The first episode of "Miles from Tomorrowland" will be aired this coming Friday, February 20 at 9 A.M.
When asked about making his first foray into animation and voice work, Grenier explained, "Nothing major. I've done some smaller things, narration and that sort of thing. Sascha and I have known each other for a long time and we've done short movies together, those kinds of voiceovers, but nothing on this scale or this quality."
As of Paladino, he showed excitement of working together with the actor. "We used to make movies together as kids, and in a way, it was like being teenagers again and making movies together in a park with a video camera! [Laughs] There was a certain joy to that," he was quoted as saying. He, moreover, added, "It wasn't about making a living or feeding other people, it was just doing it for the fun of it. Working together brought that back. We were just doing it because we love to do it. It was nice. It sounds cheesy, but we had a child-like joy."
