Actors Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg have reportedly been roped in by Paramount Pictures to star in the comedy film "Daddy's Home".
Ferrell and Wahlberg, who teamed in "The Other Guys", will work together for the second time in a film to be directed by Sean Anders.
Ferrell will portray a mild-mannered radio executive who strives to become the best stepdad to his wife's two children. Wahlberg will play their freeloading father, reports variety.com.
Based on a script by Brian Burns, the film will go on the floor later this year.
