Max Payne played by Mark Wahlberg: first photo

Great news, filming has already started on the Max Payne which is the film adaptation of the popular game. Here we have the first photo of Mark Wahlberg, I must admit he does not look like the character from the game.

I do not hold out much hope for the Max Payne movie, as other movies that have been based on games have not doe that well. John Moore is to direct the movie, his previous work includes Flight of the Phoenix, and the fantastic movie Behind Enemy Lines.

Film makers are hoping that once the movie has finished filming, they will get a PG-13 rating. Not much is known about the movie, we don’t even know if the Max Payne movie will have all the slow motion scenes like the game has.

The movie is expected to be released sometime in 2009.
