Mark Wahlberg has signed Justin Bieber to co-star in a movie about "street basketball."
I can hardly think of a person less qualified to convincingly play a streetballer than Bieber. Peter Dinklage? Perhaps the idea is to make Wahlberg look like Manute Bol.
Deadline reports that Bieber earned the job by winning the MVP in the celebrity game on NBA all-star weekend, that he "more than held his own" against former NBA players. Bieber missed the rim on several shot attempts. The CGI budget on this thing is going to be huge.
