‘The Happening’ Photocall – Rome
Wahlberg terrified when he saw his new sci-fi chiller The Happening
ACTOR Mark Wahlberg said he was petrified when he first saw the finished cut of his new sci-fi thriller The Happening, released on Friday, June 13 – a date chosen by the studio to fit its eerie mood. More significantly, it also means the movie will go toe-to-toe with The Incredible Hulk.
