Mark Wahlberg's net worth in 2022 is $350 million. This is according to numerous reputable outlets, including Celebrity Net Worth.

Mark Wahlberg grew up in Boston, Massachusetts, wherein he started his career as a rapper with the stage name “Marky Mark”. He began with a short stint in his brother's boy band, New Kids on the Block, but would quit after just several months. Marky Mark went on to form his own group, Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch, alongside fellow rappers Scott Ross, Hector Barros, Anthony Thomas, and Terry Yancey. The group was actually quite successful, with their single “Good Vibrations” hitting number 1 on the Billboard 100.  The song, which was part of their debut album Music for the People, was certified as a platinum single. Their second album, You Gotta Believe, was not as successful.

While still pursuing his music career, Wahlberg started acting in 1993. He made his acting debut in the TV film The Substitute. His first big-screen credit came in the form of Renaissance Man (1994) in a minor role. The Basketball Diaries (1995) came next, wherein he acted alongside Leonardo DiCaprio. His performance in the biographical crime drama flick led to him getting his first starring role the next year, in the thriller film Fear (1996).

Wahlberg received more and more critical acclaim for his next projects. His performance as pornstar Dick Diggler in Boogie Nights (1997) in particular was highly-rated.

Next came other well-received movies Three Kings (1999) and The Perfect Storm (2000). He also starred in The Yards (2000) alongside big names like Joaquin Phoenix and Charlize Theron.

Mark then curiously took on remakes of movies from the 1960s for his subsequent projects, namely Planet of the Apes (2001), The Truth About Charlie (2002), and The Italian Job (2003).

I Heart Huckabees (2004) and Four Brothers (2005) came after, both once again receiving critical praise. His performance in I Heart Huckabees as Tommy Corn in particular was voted the best supporting performance of the year by The Village Voice Critics Poll.

During this time span, Wahlberg actually passed up several of what would have been huge projects. He was originally cast as Linus Caldwell in Ocean's Eleven (2000), before eventually losing the role to Matt Damon. Wahlberg was also initially supposed to play Ennis Del Mar in the 2005 Ang Lee classic Brokeback Mountain alongside Joaquin Phoenix, before pulling out of the project.

Next would be sports drama Invincible (2006) as well as Martin Scorsese's The Departed (2006). He was nominated by the Academy and th Golden Globes for Best Supporting Actor for his performance in the latter film. All of this, obviously, helped to add to Mark Wahlberg's net worth in 2022.

More action flicks were in store for Wahlberg, with Shooter (2006), We Own The Night (2007), and Max Payne (2008) hitting theatres in quick succession. He also starred in some thrillers, including M.Night Shyamalan's The Happening (2008) and the film adaptation of The Lovely Bones (2009).

Three years later, he'd star in the comedy hit Ted (2012) alongside Seth MacFarlane. He reprised his role as John Bennett in the 2015 sequel.

Wahlberg also took part in the Transformers series at around the same time, replacing Shia LaBeuf in the series' leading role. He played Cade Jaeger in Transformers: Age of Extinction (2014) and Transformers: The Last Knight (2017). He's actually worked with director Michael Bay beforehand, when he starred alongside Dwayne Johnson and Anthony Mackie in the action comedy flick Pain and Gain (2013).

This brings us to his most recent big screen projects. He starred in Deepwater Horizon (2016) and Patriots Day (2016), both films inspired by true events. Then came All the Money in the World (2017), as well as Mile 22 (2018) and Netflix's Spenser Confidential (2020). His latest film to date is Uncharted (2022), wherein he plays the big screen adaptation of Victor Sullivan opposite to Tom Holland's Nathan Drake.

Like many of his peers, Wahlberg also has quite a bit of business ventures. He famously co-owns fast food chain Wahlburgers alongside his brothers, Donnie and Paul. He also has a stake in the Barbados Tridents, a Carribean Cricket Premier League team. He also invested in bottled water brand Aquahydrate in 2015 alongside Sean Combs and Ronald Burke. He is also an investor of sneaker resale company StockX as of 2019. Finally, he is an owner of several car dealerships in Ohio, starting with the Mark Wahlberg Chevrolet dealership in Columbus.

The 50-year old actor has had a fruitful 33-year acting career thus far. With his long and impressive filmography to go with his wide business portfolio, Wahlberg is now currently worth approximately $350 million.
