Mark Wahlberg Explains Why Filming ‘The Departed’ Was Not A Fun Experience

Mark Wahlberg did not have a good time while he was filming ‘The Departed’ and explained why.

Wahlberg stated, “But look, it all worked out in the end, I think.”

He added on what he thought was going to happen with the movie saying, “Well, originally, I was supposed to play another part. Originally, I was supposed to get paid, and originally, I was supposed to be—and then, even when we kind of agreed that I would play Dignam and I saw the advantages of playing that part and how I would approach the situation with everybody else playing opposite me, I then had another movie after.”

He continued, “Originally, I was just thinking, OK, we gotta make this as realistic and credible as possible. It’s Boston, it’s gangster s**t. You don’t see too many of that, those movies and I was thinking kind of broad big picture, not necessarily my own individual goals or even the opportunity for me as an actor.”
