ACTOR Mark Wahlberg is set to star in the family comedy “Instant Family” for Paramount Pictures.

“Instant Family” is a reunion for all involved, reteaming Wahlberg and filmmaker Sean Anders, who directed the actor in Paramount’s hit comedy “Daddy’s Home” and the upcoming sequel, “Daddy’s Home 2” (due out Nov. 10).

Anders and John Morris co-wrote “Instant Family” and will produce alongside Wahlberg and Steve Levinson. WME, which represents Walhberg, packaged the project. Paramount is fast-tracking the motion picture and aims to start shooting next year.

“Instant Family” centers on a couple who decide to start a family and adopt through the foster-care system, only to find themselves raising three wild kids who have no interest in being parented.

Following “Daddy’s Home 2,” Wahlberg will next be seen in theaters in the J. Paul Getty drama “All the Money in the World,” which Sony will open in theaters Dec. 8 timed to awards season.(SD-Agencies)
