Mark Wahlberg is known for his honesty in his roles. So, in his upcoming film Flight Risk, his character has a partial head.
Rather than wearing a bald cap, the actor doubled down on his commitment to the character and shaved his head.
In an interview with People, he said, "There was no bald cap. I shaved the middle and left the horseshoe around the sides. We just shaved it."
"They would shave the top as close to the scalp as possible every day, obviously, because we didn't have any stubble or anything. So I just hid it with a hat," the Transformers star continued.
"But the most priceless thing was seeing my wife's face when I took my hat off after getting the hair cut for work that day," the actor noted.
Mark, in the forthcoming Mel Gibson-directed thriller adventure, plays a pilot who flies a federal agent (Michelle Dockery) and a fugitive (Topher Grace) across Alaska.
