‘Max Payne’ … “Most complex character I’ve ever played”

Mark Wahlberg talked to MTV about the upcoming film adaptation of the hit game ‘Max Payne’.

“Two weeks out I was just dying,† Wahlberg said of his titular role in the upcoming video game adaptation “Max Payne.† “I wanted my life back.†

“I read the script and said either somebody got really creative or it’s actually more like a movie than most games,† Wahlberg enthused.

“Max Payne is not a one-trick pony. It’s probably one of the edgier roles I’ve played but also the most layered. Here’s a very happy guy who worked a dismal job, had a beautiful family. But the beauty in his life was taken away. He just goes on a rampage. It’s all driven by emotion.†

I don’t know about all that..he is just a video game character, even in 3D he cant be that complex. The movie is slated for release October 17th.
