Well this movie was actually his idea and is produced by him, as was Ted. And yes it's nice to have someone from the streets of Boston portraying someone from Boston. The accent? The mannerisms? They're not easy to do. That's why a lot of Boston movies may also feature Matt Damon or Ben Affleck.

Except they are from Cambridge and always seem to want to play street wise toughs.

Mark wahlberg is from Cambridge? Really? Try Dorchester Ave

I am very familiar with Dorchester and I wasn't talking about Wahlberg. I was talking about Matt Damon and Ben Affleck.

Black Mass and Spotlight don't feature Mark Wahlberg.
