Deadline is reporting that Mark Wahlberg is set to produce and star in Stu, a faith-based drama from first time writer-director Rosalind Ross.
While specific details are being kept under wraps, the trade reports that the project is ” loosely based on a true story and is something very close to Wahlberg’s heart and something he had been developing for a number of years.”
Filming on Stu is set to get underway next month, with Walhberg producing alongside his producing partner and manager Stephen Levinson.
