Mark Wahlberg embraced a new look for his pilot role in the new movie 'Flight Risk.' The actor, 53, shared photos of his shaved head on Instagram on Thursday, Jan. 23.

Mark Wahlberg isn’t necessarily the next Daniel Day-Lewis or Gary Oldman, actors who can transform themselves so much that they don’t even look like the same person from one movie to the next. Still, his willingness to go through such a real physical change is impressive. He, and his family, certainly went through a lot.

Wahlberg plays a pilot flying a federal agent (Michelle Dockery) and a fugitive (Topher Grace) across Alaska in the thrilling flick. Wahlberg and his wife Durham, who tied the knot in 2009, share four kids: Ella, 20, Michael, 18, Brendan, 15 and Grace, 14, who all found their dad’s new do rather funny.

New in theaters, Flight Risk marks Gibson’s first turn as a director since 2016’s Hacksaw Ridge, which earned Oscar nominations including Best Picture, Best Directing for Gibson and Best Actor for Andrew Garfield. As such, Wahlberg knew going into the film that he was in great hands before the action thriller took flight.

Flight Risk,” a new thriller starring Mark Wahlberg, soared to No. 1 at theaters and topped the box office with $12 million. Wahlberg joins “Morning in America” to discuss the film and the challenges of his starring role.

Mark Wahlberg has revealed that he apologized to his Flight Risk co-stars for being “locked into” his villainous character on set.
