In talking with Extra, Mark Wahlberg revealed how he wants to pursue seeing THE FIGHTER as a trilogy.
Speaking to Extra [via Collider] on the red carpet Sunday, Wahlberg said:
“Now we’re gonna talk about doing No. 2,” Wahlberg explained. “We’re gonna do the Ward/Gatti trilogy and make it real,” referring to the real-life Mickey Ward’s three fights with his most fierce opponent, Arturo Gatti.
I thought THE FIGHTER was great and what made it great and set it apart from other “true-story-sports-movies” was the focus on the dynamics of the family and the relationships and less on the actual boxing.
I am trying to convince my wife to see the film and she said the only way she’d see it was if “the boxing stuff was lessened.”
What do you think about the possibility of a trilogy?

I am thrilled and delighted, but I hope that he keeps “the boxing stuff” in the next two films.
