Mark Wahlberg Lands The Other Guys on Starz June 1

Mark Wahlberg's The Other Guys lands on Starz in the U.S. on June 1. The 2010 buddy cop satire is back in circulation after 16 years, and that timing gives one of Wahlberg's better-liked comedies a new home while his recent film run has been uneven.

2010 Box Office Return

The Other Guys opened as a $100 million studio gamble and finished with $170 million worldwide, including $119 million domestically and $51 million overseas. That haul did not turn it into a monster hit, but it did give the movie enough reach to outlast the moment it first arrived in theaters. The film starred Wahlberg and Will Ferrell, with Dwayne Johnson and Samuel L. Jackson appearing for less time than many viewers might remember.

Wahlberg's Recent Run

Wahlberg has two Academy Award nominations and nine Primetime Emmy nominations, but the last stretch of his film work has not landed as cleanly. In that span, 2024's Arthur the King was the exception to a recent run of poorly received films, and the reported 48% ceiling on Rotten Tomatoes over eight years shows how rarely his movies have broken through critically.

Starz Gets a 2010 Favorite

June 1 gives Starz a catalog title with a specific kind of utility: a recognizable Wahlberg-Ferrell pairing that already proved it could earn attention without needing a franchise label. For viewers, the practical move is simple—if this is the Wahlberg comedy they have been meaning to revisit, Starz becomes the new place to do it in the U.S. on June 1.
