Mark Wahlberg has occasionally found himself in the buddy comedy genre, including for films such as Ted and The Other Guys. Partners sees him returning to that format, but with something of a twist, albeit one that you’d think would’ve been figured out before now.
Partners, which has a script by Evan Turner and the backing of New Line, finds Wahlberg as an LAPD detective who has a one night stand with a woman, and falls for her. Then he learns she’s an FBI agent and, to complicate matters, will be his boss on a high profile case. According to Deadline’s report, the studio sees this one as sitting squarely in the Mr. And Mrs. Smith arena, with a lot of big action set pieces. And, hopefully, with a decent co-starring role for an actress.
There’s no word on when this might arrive on screens as it’s still at a formative stage – it doesn’t have a director yet and would have to wait for Wahlberg to be available. He’s back in comedy mode with Ferrell for Daddy’s Home, which lands in the UK on Christmas Day, and is shooting oil rig drama Deepwater Horizon.
