Kate Upton is reportedly in talks to join the highly-anticipated Entourage movie. Sources close to the Warner Bros. film have confirmed she’s in negotiations to play the female lead alongside the original cast Adrian Grenier, Kevin Connolly, Kevin Dillon, Jerry Ferrara and Jeremy Piven.

Upton’s rep would not confirm that she’s in talks for the role, but sources involved say she is in the early stages of negotiations.

According to TheWrap, the Sports Illustrated model and actress has not received a formal offer just yet. It’s rumored she could play Grenier’s love interest in the film adaptation of the HBO series.

Upton will be seen in The Other Woman opposite Cameron Diaz, Leslie Mann and Nikolaj Coster-Waldau next. She’s also had roles in The Three Stooges and Tower Heist.

Late last month, writer/director Doug Ellin confirmed the movie was definitely underway with a tweet of the cast, later adding “It's a go. love you all.” Jerry Ferrara also confirmed the rumors on The Wendy Williams Show.

The studio reportedly hopes to get started filming in January.
