What type of movie is it?

"More of a drama. It’s interesting, right? You want to know," he said. "They’ll probably announce it. They may announce it fairly soon … kind of like a reluctant mentor in an inner-city environment. You know, I don’t want to say."

But according to Deadline Hollywood, the drama explores street basketball and "the tone of the project is described as The Color of Money meets The Karate Kid, and it came out of Wahlberg and Stephen Levinson seeing Bieber play ball in February during a celebrity game held during NBA All-Star Game weekend."

Do you think a Justin and Mark movie is a good idea?
