Mark Wahlberg doesn’t want to jeopardize his home life with wife Rhea Durham, so he tries to avoid all romantic scenes in his movies.
Wahlberg recently shot a film called “Broken City,” and negotiated a deal with director Allen Hughes to cut out a hardcore sex scene in exchange for going butt naked.
Wahlberg explained during a recent interview;
“If it has anything to do with me kissing somebody my wife’s not gonna like it so I’ll fight to get it cut out. Those are the more important issues. I usually try to choose my battles wisely.”
“There’s a love scene in the movie that I’m shooting now (Broken City) that is very graphic and I’m like, ‘I really don’t want to do that. I don’t think it’s necessary, we’ve been together now seven years and the magic is probably gone in the relationship anyway!’
“She (his onscreen love interest) plays an actress and she’s having this really hardcore sex scene that she shoots in the movie and doesn’t tell me about it, and then I see it in the theatre and I have a big problem with that because I play an ex-cop who’s a private investigator investigating the mayor of New York City. And so obviously I lose that scene but then my compromise was to be nude in the scene by myself after she’s gone. I still had to be butt naked for six hours but it wasn’t with somebody else!”
Will you see “Broken City” for the full Wahlberg?
