WAHLBERG SIGNS UP AS GOSLING’S LAST MINUTE REPLACEMENT
MARK WAHLBERG has replaced RYAN GOSLING in director PETER JACKSON’s new film one day before shooting began.
Gosling pulled out of The Lovely Bones on Friday (19Oct07), despite the fact he had gained 20 pounds (nine kilograms) and grown a beard for his role. The actor quit over creative differences, according to industry paper Daily Variety.
Wahlberg signed up to play the part, a grieving father of a murdered girl, on Sunday (21Oct07).
The Lovely Bones, the movie adaptation of Alice Sebold’s bestseller, also stars Rachel Weisz. Filming began in Pennsylvania on Monday (22Oct07).
