Summerlin resident Mark Wahlberg goes bald for new film ‘Flight Risk’

He’s not quite Blue Man Group -quality, more Dr. Phil or George Costanza. But Mark Wahlberg has gone bald in his latest film role.

The A-lister and Las Vegas resident has shown off a partially his shaved dome in his upcoming movie, “Flight Risk.” Wahlberg posted photos of his new look on social media, with the comment, “No bald cap for me ..

. We go all we go all in @flightriskmovie October 18th.” A post shared by Mark Wahlberg (@markwahlberg) Wahlberg shown next to his personal hairdresser (and in this case, hair-shaver), Cheryl Daniels .

Mel Gibson directed the project, filmed in over fast three weeks in the summer of 2o23. Much of the movie was shot in Alaska. But Wahlberg and Gibson filmed for two days in Mesquite last July.

The Mesquite Local News has specified four firefighters, Robert Ceja, Cody Cannon, Vincente Pinto and Logan Aug from Mesquite Fire and Rescue took part in the filming. In “Flight Risk,” Wahlberg plays an air marshal is transporting a federal agent ( Michelle Dockery ) and fugitive ( Topher Grace ) across the Alaska wilderness in a small plane. The scene becomes dicey when Wahlberg’s character reveals that he actually is a hit man sent to kill Grace’s character.

Filming was conduced during the actors and writers strike. Wahlberg said that he and Gibson were able to complete the project, after being granted union permission. “Luckily, we were able to finish.

We only had two days before the film was complete, before the strike started,.
