After the series concluded, Ferrara went on to star in another popular series, and he's also appeared in a number of movies. As for his personal life, the actor is far different from the almost always single Turtle and has started a family since the show ended. Read on to find out more about Ferrara today.

When James was born in May 2021, Ferrara wrote on Instagram, "My heart is so full and we are ready to do our best to raise good men! To my 2 boys I promise to always love you and to be there for you in every way I can be."
He's open—with reservations—to another Entourage reunion.
Slaven Vlasic/Getty ImagesThe Entourage cast already got back together for the movie in 2015, and Ferrara has said that he would consider doing another reunion, like a second movie or a revival series.
"I feel like of course I’m going to say yes, right?" he said during a 2021 interview with KTLA. "Because, number one, it was such a blast to do, and it really did change my life and my family’s life. And also, I have a lot of love for all the guys and the crew we worked with over the years." But, he continued, "My question would be—and I guess this would go to [series creator] Doug [Ellin]—what’s the story going to be, man? We’ve done a lot. We did almost 100 episodes, two-hour movie, where are we now? Who’s doing what? And I guess I'dd be curious, maybe some of the fans would be, too, what that story would look like."
