Mark Walhberg Interested in Playing The Partner in Film Adaptation of John Grisham's Novel

The Partner by John Grisham

Earlier this year we reported that John Grisham's eighth legal thriller The Partner was being adapted for film. (All seven of the author's books that preceded this one have also been adapted.)

Now we're learning that Mark Wahlberg is interested in the role of Patrick Lanigan, a partner in a Biloxi law firm who is presumed dead after a car accident, but who is really living in Brazil under an assumed name. The question his former partners are asking: What happened to a fortune that suddenly disappeared from the firm's offshore account after Lanigan "died"?

Though the actor is reportedly in "early talks" with the producers, we can totally see Wahlberg in this role.
