What height is movie star Mark Wahlberg? While he first made a name in hip-hop group Marky Mark And The Funky Bunch and had a successful run as a model for Calvin Klein, Wahlberg later made his movie debut with a supporting role in 1994's Renaissance Man, starring Danny DeVito. With his feet wet, Mark Wahlberg moved on to The Basketball Diaries starring Leonardo DiCaprio and later won great reviews for his work as an obsessive stalker in 1996 thriller Fear.
It's fair to say that Boogie Nights was a turning point in his acting career, which is an acclaimed drama set in the world of pornography in the 1970s. Mark Wahlberg proved beyond a doubt he had a set of acting chops and was able to hold his own against the likes of Julianne Moore and Burt Reynolds. After co-starring with screen icon Chow Yun-fat in action thriller The Corruptor, Wahlberg ended up making a couple of movies back to back with George Clooney; 1999's Three Kings and The Perfect Storm.
Mark Wahlberg was eager to work with Tim Burton when he signed on to the remake of Planet Of The Apes, but while the movie was a hit it was roundly panned and Wahlberg himself later admitted it sucked. The star continued to vary his work in the 2000s, mixing dramatic parts like I Heart Huckabees and The Departed - he was nominated for a Best Supporting Actor Oscar for the latter - with action films like Shooter and Max Payne. He also starred in 2008's The Happening, which soon became a beloved bad movie, and the ever honest star later confessed it was also a dud. According to Celeb Heights, Mark Wahlberg stands at 5ft 8 inches.
Mark Wahlberg started moving towards comedy in the early 2010s, starring in the likes of The Other Guys with Will Ferrell and the Ted movies. He also kept a foot in the action world with 2 Guns and the Transformers franchise, where he played Cade Yeager in both Age Of Extinction and The Last Knight. He also starred alongside Dwayne Johnson in Michael Bay crime drama Pain And Gain.
Mark Walhberg also has a fruitful working relationship with director Peter Berg, beginning with 2013's Lone Survivor, and continuing for projects like Mile 22. Most recently, they reunited for Netflix action-comedy Spenser Confidential. Wahlberg is currently attached to an adaptation of video game Uncharted, where he will play Sully to Tom Holland's Nathan Drake. Time will tell if the movie happens, since its being trapped in development so long that Wahlberg was once attached to play Drake.
