    Marky Mark is the Six Billion Dollar Man

    Mark Wahlberg and Peter Berg, the duo behind the critically acclaimed and box office success Lone Survivor, are re-teaming for the feature film version of The Six Billion Dollar Man with various writers circling the project for The Weinstein Co.’s Dimension Films label.

    If they stay true to the story (either books OR TV show) I can live with him.

    If it's another Bionic Woman (new series) nothing will save it.

      I like him as an actor. Boogie Nights is my favorite by him.

      Given the news lately about all the private space crashes, it's a very appropriate time to announce it! I agree with you that they need to stick to the story (and update it obviously). If they do so, I'll enjoy it!

          I kind of was hoping for Chris Pratt for some odd reason but Wahlberg is an interesting choice.

              I think they live with Jazzy Jeff.

                  Wahlberg has a kind of Lee Majors twinkle in his eyes

                  Meaning he's generally likable

                  I kinda hope they go more the TV show style than the novels.

                  If they do the novels I don't think most fans would be happy

                    All I ask is they keep it serious. If they turn it into a stupid comedy I won't go see it.

                      It could go either way. He's done quite a few comedies in amongst his action and drama roles. His certainly fit for the role.

                        I like Wahlberg well enough but sometimes that soft voice and Boston accent sounds a tad whinny ... "Transfoamerzzz".

                        Still, he's pretty good in Lone Survivor so I know he's got the acting chops. And Peter Berg isn't really known for light and fluffy movies. I'm really with Chris, this could go either way.

                            I hope they also give him the ability to talk to animals.

                              I was hoping it would be Donnie.
