In The Union, Wahlberg teams up with Halle Berry; a synopsis for the film on Netflix's Tudum website describes it as an action film following the two stars as former high school sweethearts who are reunited when Berry's spy character Roxanne recruits Wahlberg's Mike to join her on a mission. That movie begins streaming on Netflix Aug. 16.

While speaking with Cigar Aficionado back in September 2023, Wahlberg suggested he may not work as frequently moving forward. “I don’t think that I’ll be acting that much longer at the pace I am now," he said at the time, adding that he is "certainly working harder now than ever."
