And he\u2019s willing to keep the momentum going \u2014 so long as Tinseltown keeps coming to him.<\/p>\n
Hollywood star Adrian Grenier, who now resides on a farm in Texas, revealed to Page Six in an exclusive interview what it would take for him to make a full-time return to acting. Page Six<\/p>\n

\u201cI mean, the truth is, the industry is moving to me,\u201d Grenier, 49, told Page Six in an exclusive interview alongside co-stars Henry Cejudo and Garrett Patten, who also directed the \u201cbitcoin action-thriller.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThere\u2019s $2.5 billion that the Texas state government just put into film and television projects in Texas,\u201d Grenier noted. \u201cThey\u2019re building three movie studios not too far from me. I don\u2019t see any reason why we wouldn\u2019t just continue to film in Texas.\u201d<\/p>\n
Patten revealed to us that they\u2019re \u201cin talks\u201d about adapting \u201cSelf Custody\u201d into a feature film or TV show of some kind.<\/p>\n

Grenier is all for it. \u201cIt has so much bigger potential,\u201d he marveled. \u201cSo I\u2019m really looking forward to continuing to evolve the \u2018Self Custody\u2019 brand into a larger project.\u201d<\/p>\n
Though the actor \u2014 who had been visiting Austin for decades before buying his first property in the city around 2016 \u2014 has \u201ca soft spot in [his] heart for California,\u201d the Lone Star State is now his home.<\/p>\n
He enjoys life out of the spotlight with his wife, Jordan Roemmele<\/a>, and their sons: Seiko<\/a>, almost 3, and Evren<\/a>, who will turn 1 later this month.<\/p>\n \u201cThey\u2019re building three movie studios not too far from me,\u201d Grenier told us. \u201cI don\u2019t see any reason why we wouldn\u2019t just continue to film in Texas.\u201d Page Six<\/p>\n \u201c[This short] has so much bigger potential,\u201d the actor (seen in the project) marveled. \u201cSo I\u2019m really looking forward to continuing to evolve the \u2018Self Custody\u2019 brand into a larger project.\u201d TBK Productions\/Youtube<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s a party. It\u2019s a total party. I love it, absolutely,\u201d Grenier gushed of having two under 3.<\/p>\n \u201cOne thing I gotta say that we all share here on this call \u2014 Garrett and Henry \u2014 is we\u2019re committed fathers,\u201d he made sure to add. \u201cWhen we\u2019re not talking shop and talking about business, we\u2019re talking about how much we love our kids.\u201d<\/p>\n Grenier decided to dip his toes back in the acting pool with \u201cSelf Custody,\u201d specifically, because he believed in the team and understood the topic.<\/p>\n Grenier\u2019s \u201cSelf Custody\u201d co-star Garrett Patten (seen with the actor at a panel for the film in January) also directed the \u201cbitcoin action-thriller.\u201d Getty Images for Jane Owen Public Relations<\/p>\n Grenier enjoys life out of the spotlight with his wife, Jordan Roemmele, and their two young sons: Seiko and Evren. adriangrenier\/Instagram<\/p>\n \u201cI really only take [on] roles that reflect my values or that speak to me in some way,\u201d he explained. \u201cI\u2019m in a position, luckily, where I don\u2019t have to just take whatever I can get. So this was a project that met my standards, I guess, just in terms of quality of filmmaking storyline.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cAnd then the character itself really spoke to me,\u201d continued Grenier, who plays a wealthy businessman responsible for giving his once-employee (Patten) a signing bonus in millions of dollars worth of bitcoin.<\/p>\n Patten, meanwhile, plays a struggling father whose desperation to reclaim the lost fortune sends him spiraling into a high-stakes world of encrypted wallets, forgotten passwords and dark web danger.<\/p>\n Grenier played Anne Hathaway\u2019s love interest in the 2006 movie \u201cThe Devil Wears Prada,\u201d a scene of which is seen here. STEVE SANDS\/NEW YORK NEWSWIRE<\/p>\n He most famously starred in the TV series \u201cEntourage,\u201d which ran from 2004 to 2011. Art Streiber\/HBO<\/p>\n Grenier and \u201cEntourage\u201d co-star Jeremy Piven recently reunited in Austin, where the latter now lives. The former teased that they\u2019re open to filming a revival. Instagram\/Jeremy Piven<\/p>\n \u201cYou know, as a bitcoin guy, a bitcoin maxi and somebody who believes in crypto as an ideology and a philosophy, it was almost tailor-made for me,\u201d Grenier told us.<\/p>\n \u201cSelf Custody\u201d marks his first acting role in four years, though his biggest claims to fame are still the 2006 cult classic movie \u201cThe Devil Wears Prada\u201d<\/a> and the popular HBO series \u201cEntourage,\u201d which ran from 2004 to 2011.<\/p>\n
