Mark Wahlberg is dapper in dove gray suit at LA premiere for his new film Spenser Confidential

He stars in the upcoming Netflix film Spenser Confidential.

And on Thursday night Mark Wahlberg headlined the Los Angeles premiere for the movie which is based on the novel by Robert B. Parker.

The actor, 48, who also serves as a producer on the project, looked dapper in a dove gray suit as he posed for photos.

Wahlberg added a white shirt and a silver and black striped silk tie. 

He completed his look with a pair of brown brogues.

The star was joined at the screening by co-stars Winston Duke, Alan Arkin,  Iliza Shlesinger, and Alexandra Vino.

On hand, too, was director Peter Berg, who helmed Wahlberg’s movies Lone Survivor, Deepwater Horizon and Patriots Day. 

The film drops on Netflix on March 6. 

During an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show this week to promote Spenser Confidential, Wahlberg spoke about his character and the film’s plot. 

‘He was a former police officer who just basically cannot stand when somebody is being wronged, especially innocent people,’ he began.

‘So there’s a homicide within the police department, there’s a lot of corruption going on. He tries to do all the things right to get them to find out who’s responsible, they’re kind of sandbagging the investigation, so he decides to go after his superiors himself,’ he said.

Wahlberg continued: ‘He ends up beating up his superior, goes to prison for five years, actually makes it in population in prison and then he ‘s going to leave town.’

‘And then he realizes that there’s more corruption going on and he can’t stand by to see injustice, so he’s going to take it upon himself to now be a private investigator,’ he added.
