Description
Y'all needs a pilot?
That's the tagline of "Flight Risk," starring Oscar nominee Mark Wahlberg ("The Departed," "The Fighter") as a hitman posing as a pilot hired to transport an air marshal (Michelle Dockery) and a fugitive (Topher Grace) to a trial.
"It's the first time I play the villain in about 30 years. I've definitely played anti-heroes, guys in the gray area, but this is a full-blown villain," Wahlberg said. "I was inspired by movies like 'The Shining,' 'In the Line of Fire,' 'The Fugitive' and 'Cape Fear' — films like that where we're always rooting for the bad guy, these deplorable characters."
"Flight Risk" is now in theaters nationwide.
