Scorsese & Wahlberg’s HBO Drama
Oscar winner Martin Scorsese has teamed with his “Departed” co-star Mark Wahlberg for a drama series project for HBO about the development of Atlantic City.
The project will be developed in conjunction with the book, “Boardwalk Empire: The Birth, High Times, and Corruption of Atlantic City” by Nelson Johnson, which has been optioned by HBO.
Wahlberg and Levinson already are in business with HBO by executive producing two series, the hit comedy “Entourage” and the upcoming drama “In Treatment.” Leverage, which produces both series with HBO, is also behind the Atlantic City series. - The Hollywood Reporter
