According to a Variety report, Oscar nominee Mark Wahlberg is in negotiations to play as Max Payne in Twentieth Century Fox’s upcoming live action movie based on the game.

Wahlberg is negotiating to play the titular cop who is haunted by the tragic loss of his family and has little regard for rules as he investigates a series of mysterious murders. He finds himself up against an adversary bent on destroying Max and the streets he protects.

Directed by John Moore, the film is set to begin shooting after Wahlberg finishes DreamWorks’ The Lovely Bones.
