Mark Wahlberg's kids and their similar interests to the Oscar-nominee father

Whether it's acting, MMA, or equestrian — their kids seem to be following their dad's footprints.

Brendan is apparently into both gaming and acting. And it seems he has no shortcuts just because he's a famous actor's son when it comes to landing a role.

“My youngest son says he's a better actor than me and that he's gonna be bigger than I ever was. So I keep encouraging him to start now, but he's much more interested in playing video games,” Mark said.

“I could've gotten him a part in my next film that comes out,” he continued. “A 15-year-old who loves video games, but he had to go through the process and audition.”
