Mark Wahlberg returns to the world of crime thrillers with Play Dirty, in which he plays a career thief who walks straight into a storm of trouble. The ‘Boogie Nights’ star’s latest target is not your usual vault but a heist tangled in a deadly web of power. From a ruthless South American leader to the ruthless New York underworld, and a billionaire with too much to lose, Parker’s job quickly turns into a brutal balancing act. However, he is not alone in the mess. LaKeith Stanfield plays Grofield, another slick operator with his sharp edges, as the two gear up for a mission that demands more than brute force.
