Mark Wahlberg BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
If you’ve always thought Mark Wahlberg does it all, the last few days prove it—the actor, entrepreneur, and perennial early riser is living up to his superhuman reputation. Let’s zoom in.
On the entertainment front, Wahlberg was recently filming scenes in Shrewsbury, Massachusetts for his upcoming project “Weekend Warriors,” according to local press. Photos showed the actor behind the wheel of a shiny green semi-truck, fully in character—classic Wahlberg: all-in, all the time, business as usual on set, Telegram reports. But Hollywood isn’t his only stage. The debut trailer for “The Family Plan 2” just dropped, and Wahlberg is back leading an Apple TV+ franchise that already proved a runaway hit. Collider highlights the sequel’s European vacation twist, with Wahlberg’s onscreen family dodging assassins and holiday stress, plus the return of castmates Michelle Monaghan and new villain Kit Harington. The Family Plan 2 hits streaming on November 21, and with the first film’s huge viewership, this sequel could cement Wahlberg’s status as a major streamer draw.
Meanwhile, the Wahlberg business empire keeps evolving, though not always smoothly. Wahlburgers, the burger chain he co-founded with siblings, made headlines yet again. This time, it’s for closing 79 locations nationwide in a 2025 shake-up, as reported by AOL. The closures, mostly kiosks in Hy-Vee grocery stores, leave the brand with 34 locations—a dramatic pullback from a once-ambitious expansion. But don’t assume he’s slowing down: Wahlberg’s other ventures include auto dealerships in Ohio (Chevrolet, Buick, and GMC), a Vegas-based Mexican-inspired restaurant (Flecha Cantina), and his tequila brand, Flecha Azul. He’s also stayed active in fitness, with his investment in F45 Training and Performance Inspired supplements. Wahlberg’s ability to balance blockbusters and burgers, gyms and tequila—often documented on his social media—cements his rep as a Hollywood entrepreneur on par with the Clooneys and Pitbulls of the world.
Real estate watchers took note when Westside Today revealed Wahlberg’s former Beverly Hills estate hit the market for $22 million. No word yet on buyers, but it’s a reminder of his hard-earned Hollywood clout and savvy investing—he’s upgraded to a bigger Beverly Park compound, but still holds commercial property in Massachusetts and, according to reports, is even building a private gym in Idaho.
On the lighter side, British talk show host Graham Norton stirred up old gossip, naming Wahlberg as his “worst ever” guest on “The Graham Norton Show,” recalling a “hellish” 2013 appearance. It’s a footnote, but one that reminds us even A-listers have off days.
Finally, what’s Wahlberg eating these days? Muscle & Fitness says the famously meat-centric actor has switched—temporarily, at least—to a plant-based diet after years of chicken, steak, and fish left him with gut issues. He’s reportedly feeling “really good” and, as ever, is committed to whatever routine keeps him camera-ready, whether that’s up at 4 a.m. or 2:30 if he must.
No major social media storms or surprise announcements this week, but Wahlberg’s pace—film shoots, business pivots, lifestyle experiments—shows a star who’s still hungry, for both accolades and avocado toast. The headlines may change, but the hustle never stops.
