Mark Wahlberg at 52: The Rise of Hollywood’s Massachusetts Bad Boy
Massachusetts star Mark Wahlberg is aging like a fine wine.
Born in Dorchester, Wahlberg is the youngest of nine children and has proven to be one of the hardest-working people in showbiz over the last few decades, from a music career, to owning a restaurant chain, to producing to starring in genre-spanning blockbusters such as Ted and The Departed.
His latest success is The Family Plan. Since dropping in December 2023, the action-comedy has become Apple TV's No. 1 release and most-viewed movie.
Wahlberg, 52, doesn't show any signs of slowing down. He has another movie coming out this year called, Arthur The King, which he stars in and produces. If you love animals, dogs in particular, you will likely enjoy this film.
Wahlberg remains one hell of a stud. There is no denying this man's hustle and he has stayed authentic to who he is and where he comes from.
We thought it was only fitting to put together a little "through the years" gallery to show off the neverending rise of one of our best-known Bay Staters. Take a look:
