Mark Wahlberg might have found fame with rap crew Marky Mark in the early '90s, but he soon made his foray into the modelling and acting scene, making his screen debut in Renaissance Man (1994).

Just two years later, Wahlberg landed his first starring role in psychological thriller Fear (1996), alongside Reese Witherspoon.

Since then, he has starred in a host of Hollywood hits and, from studio action films, comedies, and the Transformers sequels, the list is pretty diverse.

More recently, Wahlberg has stepped into the streaming world with Netflix’s Spenser Confidential, Paramount Plus's Infinite, and new Netflix comedy Me Time.
