(RTTNews) - Mark Wahlberg has revealed that he believes the sequel to "The Fighter," will be filmed.
Wahlberg, who starred in the film alongside Christian Bale and Melissa Leo, said he has been in talks with the studios regarding the sequel. In an interview with EW, he noted: "Everybody had such an amazing experience making the movie that I can't imagine they wouldn't want to go back," he tells EW. "But it's still kind [of] in the early stages."
Wahlberg also explained: "I got bit by the bug, and now I'm trying to plant the idea in everyone's head that we should do - not five or six Fighters like Rocky - but one more because the big thing that Mickey Ward was famous for was his three epic battles with Arturo Gatti. So we're talking about possibly taking one more run at it."
"The Fighter" (which was released on DVD on Tuesday) received seven Academy Award nominations, with Melissa Leo winning an Oscar for Best Supporting Actress. The film earned $93 million at the domestic box office.
