Familiar Playbook

"The Fighter" actor Mark Wahlberg and director David O. Russell have been pegged to re-team for several pics... another was added to the list reports Vulture



Wahlberg will star in Russell’s adaptation of Matthew Quick's 2008 novel "The Silver Linings Playbook".

The story follows a delusional former high school history teacher who's just been released into the custody of his mom. Believing that he’s only been away for a few months instead of the four years he just spent in a mental institution, the teacher sets about wooing back his ex-wife.

The Silver Linings Playbook seemingly has taken priority over both a "Fighter" sequel and the proposed video game adaptation "Uncharted: Drake's Fortune"--making this  collaboration Russell's likely next project.
