Mark Wahlberg Decided to Go Through The Pain!

While filming his 2024 film Arthur the King, Wahlberg had a grave injury on the first day of filming. In an interview with Fox News Digital, Wahlberg revealed that he tore his meniscus on the first day of filming!
“I tore my meniscus the first day, and I’m producing the movie, so I couldn’t shut the production down. I had to fight through. These guys, you know, adventure racers, endurance athletes, [are] incredible, absolutely incredible.”
For those unversed, a meniscus is a c-shaped pad of cartilage that acts like a shock absorber in the knees. So, meniscus helps the body while running, jumping, or even working out. And due to the poor luck of Wahlberg, his meniscus suffered a tear. Instead of correcting it surgically, the actor decided to go through the pain and let it heal naturally!

Although suffering the injury was an accident, going through the pain without surgery was Mark Wahlberg’s personal choice. In a separate interview with People Magazine, Wahlberg revealed that he opted to let his meniscus heal naturally instead of going through surgery!
“[I was] running along a hill where we went up the embankment and just jumped off a little rock, landed on it wrong, I kind of snapped my knee back, and it tore, but when I got it x-rayed, the doctor was pretty adamant about doing the surgery because what happens is, if it locks, it can lock in a bent and flexed position, and then you cannot move your knee until they perform the surgery,”
He further continued,
“I just said, ‘You know what? I got to kind of try to tough it out and see if I can get through the movie. I prefer to try to do corrective exercises versus surgery. It’s not my thing.”
Well, Mark Wahlberg did eventually finish the movie, and in fact, Arthur the King was recently released in theaters as well. With a rating of 6.7/10 on IMDB and 65% on Rotten Tomatoes, the 2024 film is currently screening in theaters across the world.
