Mark Wahlberg surprised his wife by going bald for his new movie 'Flight Risk,' and her reaction was 'priceless.' Watch the first trailer to see his shocking transformation.

Sydney Bucksbaum is a writer at Entertainment Weekly covering all things pop culture – but TV is her one true love. She currently lives in Los Angeles but grew up in Chicago so please don't make fun of her accent when it slips out.The actor stars in the upcoming thriller directed by Mel Gibson about a pilot who transports an Air Marshal to trial.

"There was no bald cap," Wahlberg told PEOPLE. "I shaved the middle and left the horseshoe around the sides. We just shaved it. They would shave the top as close to the scalp as possible every day, obviously, because we didn't have any stubble or anything. So I just hid it with a hat. But the most priceless thing was seeing my wife's face when I took my hat off after getting the hair cut for work that day.

Wahlberg and Durham, who have been married since 2009, share four kids: Ella, 20, Michael, 18, Brendan, 15 and Grace, 14. "Oh, they're gonna love it," Wahlberg says of his bald head. "My kids — my boys especially — they loved the hair cut. They got a lot of laughs out of that." He had a partially shaved head for the 22 days of filming, and once filming wrapped, Wahlberg grew his hair out immediately. "For me, yeah, it's not fun," he added. "Hopefully I can just kind of become the character. Wearing a fake either a wig or mustache, I always feel like it feels ridiculous."
