Adrian Grenier has added another guy-behind-the-guy to his posse.

Looking for a steadier stream of financing for his filmmaking aspirations, the Entourage star's Reckless Productions has announced a partnership with Northern California investment group J. Loar, Inc.

Grenier founded his shingle in 2007 with the hopes of turning out documentaries and films with positive messages, such as his 2002 directorial debut Shot in the Dark, about the actor's years-long search for his estranged father, which premiered last year on HBO.

"John Loar and I share the same values," the actor said Tuesday. "It's exciting to work with someone with a good heart who wants to put his financial muscle towards creative and socially conscious projects."

"We're matching private equity funds up with expertise, production experience and celebrity," Loar added. "When there is social good, as is the case on these two projects, then it's icing on the cake."
