Zoo Magazine sat down with Mark Wahlberg and asked him about turning down a role in the Ocean's franchise and here is what he had to say!
Is it true you turned down the chance to be in the Ocean's films?
Yeah – and it was well worth it! The second one sucked! People tell George Clooney it's great, but we all know it sucked. I made two bad movies instead – Planet Of The Apes and The Truth About Charlie – but doing that was better than sitting with Brad and George, telling the press how great everybody is! "We were in Europe, George was funny, then we had some wine…" – that's not for me. I do love those guys, but I had to step out on my own.
I have to admit he is so right, Ocean's 12 sucked and their movie junkets are so sweet and lovey dovey that it is sickening. Plus you have to admire him for admitting he makes bad movies, how many other actors do that.
