Dwayne Johnson and Mark Wahlberg to Headline HBO Athlete Dramedy Pilot

Kevin Fitzpatrick — Thu, 02 May 2013 19:05:55 +0000

After dominating the box office this past weekend with Michael Bay's 'Pain and Gain,' Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson and Mark Wahlberg are heading to the last place we expected to find them -- the small screen. The body-building duo will reunite for an upcoming HBO drama pilot about retired athletes in Miami, with Johnson set to star and Peter Berg attached to direct a script from 'Entourage' writer Stephen Levinson. But is there any chance HBO would pass on such a star-studded series?

'Pain and Gain' Exclusive Red-Band Clip: Meet The Rock's Beautiful Russian Girlfriend

ScreenCrush Staff — Fri, 26 Apr 2013 16:33:53 +0000

'Pain and Gain' - the new Michael Bay film starring Mark Wahlberg and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson - is insane. And we mean that in the best possible way. Don't believe us? We have a brand new exclusive 'Pain and Gain' clip that can prove it! It's NSFW and it's very funny.

'Pain and Gain' Review

Matt Singer — Thu, 25 Apr 2013 21:15:52 +0000

I watch a lot of 'Project Runway.' My wife likes it -- and, yeah, I like it too. A show dedicated to fashion design that features creative and powerful women is a weird thing to think about while watching a Michael Bay movie but that's exactly what I did during 'Pain and Gain.' Bay could learn a thing or two from that show about editing. Not in the cinematic, cutting shots together sense; that he's got. This is a different kind of editing.

It's the kind that is often called out by the 'Runway' judges when they tell the contestants (I'm paraphrasing), "This is too busy. You need to edit. That blue fuzzy hat that looks like a tribble distracts from the gorgeous, ornately sequined dress. The dress is enough. You don't need the tribble hat. Edit."

A Michael Bay movie -- particularly 'Pain & Gain' -- is a sequined dress with a blue tribble hat.

Mike Sampson — Thu, 17 Jan 2013 21:13:23 +0000

Mark Wahlberg Did the Local Weather Report in Philly

Donald Deane — Fri, 11 Jan 2013 16:43:01 +0000

Luckily for Mark Wahlberg, he has a successful career as an actor to fall back on, because, as this clip from ‘Good Day Philadelphia’ shows, he doesn’t cut it as a weatherman. Wahlberg and Allen Hughes, who directed the actor’s latest film ‘Broken City,’ stopped by the morning program to ham it up during an [...]

Eric Walkuski — Mon, 17 Dec 2012 16:25:24 +0000

It's hard to find two leading men more "Alpha Male" than Mark Wahlberg and Russell Crowe, so combing their two imposing presences in 'Broken City' should set off plenty of fireworks in the upcoming political/action thriller. The new 'Broken City' trailer has appeared online, and you can check it out after the break.

'Ted 2′ – Mark Wahlberg Says the Sequel Will Be "Sick"

Damon Houx — Sat, 15 Dec 2012 01:32:14 +0000

After this summer's surprise success of 'Ted,' it was no surprise that Universal was looking to make a sequel as quickly as possible, and if what Mark Wahlberg is saying is true, we may get it sooner than you'd think.

Fox and 'Entourage' Creators Developing Marijuana Legalization Comedy

Kevin Fitzpatrick — Tue, 20 Nov 2012 21:01:36 +0000

Well, that didn't take very long, did it? While a few weeks ago most concerned themselves with petty matters like the Presidential election, the real story came out of Colorado and Washington, where a measure passed legalizing the sale of marijuana! While perhaps symptom of a delayed reaction (hint hint), it seems Hollywood has responded in kind by developing a FOX sitcom based on the legalizing movement! From the producers of 'Entourage' no less, could 'The Happy Tree' push the movement even further?

'Transformers 4′ Searching for Hot Girls to Keep Mark Wahlberg Company

Britt Hayes — Thu, 15 Nov 2012 03:30:01 +0000

'Transformers 4' is happening and while we don't know much about the film, we do know this much: it will be directed by Michael Bay, hence it will star a hot young girl. In previous installments it was Megan Fox or Isabel Lucas or Rosie Huntington-Whiteley but with an all new cast lined up for 'Transformers 4' (headed by Mark Wahlberg), Bay is out searched for fresh blood. So what girls does he have in his sights?

Mark Wahlberg Now Confirmed For 'Transformers 4′

Damon Houx — Fri, 09 Nov 2012 01:55:45 +0000

So much of the scuttlebutt around movies is usually half-truths. Three weeks ago we reported that Mark Wahlberg might be up for 'Transformers 4.' The next day it was denied. But now it looks like Wahlberg has been confirmed for the movie by the director himself.

'Point Blank' Remake in the Works From Mark Wahlberg

Nick Romano — Fri, 02 Nov 2012 13:27:49 +0000

There's been lots of talk about Mark Wahlberg lately, what with the initial rumor that he'd be starring in 'Transformers 4' and then the follow up statement from Michael Bay himself claiming those to be false. So what is this star up to nowadays? Oh nothing, he's just working on an Americanized remake of 'Point Blank.'

Mark Wahlberg Not Joining 'Transformers 4′ After All

Mike Sampson — Wed, 24 Oct 2012 13:25:03 +0000

Yesterday, the disturbing rumor hit the web: Mark Wahlberg was in talks with director Michael Bay to star in 'Transformers 4.' But today we have an update from Bay himself who clarifies the news and explains where the confusion came from.

'Transformers 4′: Could Mark Wahlberg be Joining the Cast?

Damon Houx — Tue, 23 Oct 2012 23:06:57 +0000

Michael Bay played footsies for a while with doing more 'Transformers' movies, but has signed up for a fourth film, because... well, money. Lots and lots of it. Bay earned $80 Million from the first film (which is the lowest grossing film of the franchise), and gets 8% of the merchandising money, so it's safe to assume that he makes over $100 Million a sequel. But it looks like he's bringing in a new lead.

'Broken City' Trailer: Mark Wahlberg vs. Russell Crowe

Mike Sampson — Thu, 04 Oct 2012 18:03:02 +0000

In the 'Broken City' trailer you'll see Mark Wahlberg being the usual Mark Wahlberg ("Yauh gonna wawk away..."), Russell Crowe being the aging bad guy (when did become the actor playing the bad guy in a Mark Wahlberg action movie?) and Catherine Zeta-Jones as a slut. Can all these moving parts come together to make an effective political conspiracy action suspect thriller?

Mark Wahlberg Claims He Would've Been a 9/11 Action Hero

Shauna Wright — Thu, 19 Jan 2012 14:52:45 +0000

After a new interview with Men’s Journal, Mark Wahlberg is under fire for perhaps taking his own image as an action star a bit too seriously. On September 11, 2001, the 40-year-old ‘Contraband’ actor was booked on American Airlines Flight 11, but changed his ticket at the last minute to attend the Toronto Film Festival. [...]
