Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Mark Wahlberg has yet to pay off his chilling villain role from 28 years ago, despite starring in 51 movies since the $20 million thriller. As he started to transition from Marky Mark the rapper to big-time movie star, Wahlberg made his acting debut in the 1993 TV movie The Substitute. The following year, he made his official screen debut in Renaissance Man opposite Danny Devito in 1994, kicking off a 30-year film career.
Mark Wahlberg Hasn't Played A Movie Villain Since 1996's Fear Wahlberg played David McCall in the psychological thriller Close After starring in TheBasketball Diaries opposite Leonardo DiCaprio in 1995, Wahlberg landed his first leading role in James Foley's psychological thriller Fear in 1996. He played 23-year-old David McCall opposite Reese Witherspoon as 16-year-old Nicole Walker.
The fact that Wahlberg last played a villain 28 years ago in one of his first roles ever is surprising, especially considering he's starred in over 50 movies in that time. Given the lack of critical or commercial success for the actor's movies as of late, it couldn't hurt to try out the villain role again instead of the funny man or action hero archetypes Wahlberg is used to playing.
