During a carpet event forLone Survivor(2013), Wahlberg stated,
“For actors to sit there and talk about, ‘Oh I went to SEAL training, and I slept on the’ – I don’t give fck what you did. For somebody to sit there and say my job is as difficult as somebody in the military’s. How fcking dare you. While you sit in a makeup chair for two hours.”
