Mark Wahlberg looking for "Tough Broads", "Crack Addicts", and Cambodian Men

Mark Wahlberg is coming back to Boston to play Lowell's Mickey Ward in his new movie, The Fighter. Batman's Christian Bale will also be in the upcoming movie playing his younger brother who helped him train to become the world lightweight champion in the 80's. This will be the Dorchester native's third movie shot in Massachusetts, behind The Perfect Storm (2nd highest grossing MA movie of all time) and The Departed.

The movie will actually be shot primarily in Lowell in July. Although we were not able to find the link on Boston Casting's site, the Loaded Gun reports they will be holding an open casting call tomorrow at 129 Braintree St. in Allston from 10am to 4pm. They are specifically looking for:

• Women from 25-40 to play "tough broads"
• Men from ages 25-40 to play "crack addicts"

What we were able to find on Boston Casting's site was an open casting call for this Monday from 11am to 4pm for Cambodian men ages 25-40 who speak fluent Khmer. If you fit any of these profiles, bring your headshot and resume with you to either of these casting calls.

Mark Wahlberg - From Shooter to Boxer

Mark Wahlberg is certainly one busy Boston guy. After coming a bit short on the Best Supporting Actor for his role in The Departed, Walhberg is out promoting his new Shooter movie coming out this Friday. On his Jay Leno appearance last night, Mark said it was one of the toughest physical roles he’s ever had.

Walberg also let us know he is training hard for an upcoming Boston area boxing movie with Matt Damon called The Fighter. The movie is base on the true life story of ''Irish'' Micky Ward's rise to the lightweight title. According to Variety, filming is due to start this summer.
