Mark Wahlberg’s acting retirement revelation comes shortly after the star relocated his family from Los Angeles to Las Vegas.
“Well, I’m certainly working harder now than ever. Certain businesses, you kind of build them, pass them on or you exit,” Wahlberg, 52, told“Hopefully my kids, we’ll see what their interests are, but I don’t think that I’ll be acting that much longer at the pace I am now. That’s for sure,” he continued. “Because that’s the most difficult thing.”
Wahlberg got his start as a member of the hip hop group Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch in the ’90s and made his screen debut in 1994’s “Renaissance Man.” He found major success with the HBO series “Entourage,” which ran for eight seasons from 2004 to 2011, and launched his production company, Closest to the Hole, in 2004. Last year, he also announced an ownership stake in Flecha Azul Tequila.
“Well, I’m certainly working harder now than ever. Certain businesses, you kind of build them, pass them on or you exit,” Wahlberg, 52, told Cigar Aficionado.“I spent lots of time in L.A. pursuing my interests and my career, and now it’s time for them to pursue theirs. Everybody is thriving there. It’s been great,” he told E! News in April.“I was always proactive in trying to find material and things that I could produce, that I knew was right for me, create my own destiny,” he added.
