The Mel Gibson-directed thriller “Flight Risk” opens in theaters Friday. The airplane drama takes thrills to new heights as Mark Wahlberg — who partially shaved his head for the role — stars as a pilot who’s transporting an Air Marshal and her fugitive but reveals his secret agenda mid-flight.

Reading more like a play than a movie script, "Flight Risk" puts three actors in a plane with a psycho Mark Wahlberg on the loose. Mel Gibson directs.

Flight Risk,” a new thriller starring Mark Wahlberg, soared to No. 1 at theaters and topped the box office with $12 million. Wahlberg joins “Morning in America” to discuss the film and the challenges of his starring role.

Such was the case for Mark Wahlberg’s newest movie, Flight Risk. Wahlberg didn't have to hit the gym, but he did shave his head. The look has certainly evoked a response, but none can match the one from Wahlbeg's own wife.
