Kevin Dillon
After spending multiple season on Entourage shouting "Victory!" for his cancelled television series, Kevin "Drama" Dillon has been given a chance to shout tons of encouraging obscenities in National Lampoon's spoof of 300, humorously titled 301.
Kevin Dillon for National Lampoons: 301
We all know how I adore long titles, and this one is a whopper.
National Lampoon's 301: The Legend of Awesomest Maximus Wallace Leonidas
The name is pretty hilarious, but awkwardly long.
As you might have guessed, 301 spoofs the sword-and-sandal epics 300, Troy, Gladiator and Braveheart, and Dillon plays the bumbling Spartan general who fails upward in his quest for greatness.
Jason Burinescu, who is also onboard to produce, wrote the script. Lampoon is currently seeking out a director.
The number one draw to 301 will obviously be Dillon and his countless Entourage fans who have watched the failing actor (on the show) rise back into smallscreen stardom. Johnny "Drama" Chase became a cult legend with the short-lived series called Viking Quest, giving him the signature line of "Victory!"
The character is also repeatedly seen buying supplements in the show, so hopefully that will help Dillon's build by the time 301 gets filming this December.
"Kevin is perfect for this role," said Lampoon's Justin Kanew.
