Wahlberg plays a pilot flying a federal agent (Michelle Dockery) and a fugitive (Topher Grace) across Alaska in the thrilling flick. Wahlberg and his wife Durham, who tied the knot in 2009, share four kids: Ella, 20, Michael, 18, Brendan, 15 and Grace, 14, who all found their dad’s new do rather funny.
New in theaters, Flight Risk marks Gibson’s first turn as a director since 2016’s Hacksaw Ridge, which earned Oscar nominations including Best Picture, Best Directing for Gibson and Best Actor for Andrew Garfield. As such, Wahlberg knew going into the film that he was in great hands before the action thriller took flight.
I was looking forward to seeing Mark Wahlberg as a villain in Flight Risk, but I'm disappointed with how the 2025 thriller actually used him.
Wahlberg portrays a hitman masquerading as a pilot in Mel Gibson's latest movie 'Flight Risk,' in theaters now
After watching Mel Gibson's latest movie, Flight Risk, which stars Mark Wahlberg, Michelle Dockery, and Topher Grace, it makes sense why Lionsgate moved it to a January 2025 release.
The Mel Gibson-directed thriller “Flight Risk” opens in theaters Friday. The airplane drama takes thrills to new heights as Mark Wahlberg — who partially shaved his head for the role — stars as a pilot who’s transporting an Air Marshal and her fugitive but reveals his secret agenda mid-flight.
Michelle Dockery and Topher Grace also star in this movie about a U.S. Marshall, her mob-connected witness and a hit man posing as a pilot.
Despite the turbulence, Mel Gibson’s “Flight Risk” managed to open No. 1 at the box office with a modest $12 million, according to studio estimates Sunday.
Mark Wahlberg and Mel Gibson have teamed up for an action movie, but critics and audiences on Rotten Tomatoes are extremely divided about its quality.
Ninety minutes in a confined space with Wahlberg screaming threats of sexual violence? Hard pass It’s weird to find an animal outside of its natural habitat. A penguin floating around the International Space Station instead of waddling through the Antarctic.
Mel Gibson clearly brought energy to the "Flight Risk" set as director ... emanating the intensity of his iconic character William Wallace in a promo pushing his newest film -- face paint and all.
