Donnie Wahlberg Reveals How Season 6 of ‘Very Scary People’ Connects to Brother Mark Wahlberg’s Career

Transcript

00:00This season is interesting because there's a wide array of very scary people that we're covering.

00:08You know, we're covering the guys who my brother Mark's movie Pain and Gain was based on,

00:17and that certainly didn't keep me up at night, but it was pretty bad, you know. The movie was,

00:25you know, I think at least presented to the public as a bit of a comedy, like a goofball

00:32caper, but these guys were serious and did some awful things and, you know, that one was a real

00:39surprise to me, you know, because of course I see all my brother's movies and Mark and I support

00:44each other. Contrary to popular belief, we're very supportive of each other. I just had no idea

00:52how intense this story really was, and I think a lot of them. I think, you know,

01:00the Matusowitz family, just very scary in a completely different way than a typical

01:06very scary people story, and I think the preacher Clarence Heatley, you know,

01:10growing up in Boston, was close enough to New York that we always heard stories about

01:15things taking place in New York, and he was this sort of mythical figure to us,

01:20and then knowing that Bobby Brown, who is a friend and also someone who I've looked

01:25up to my whole life, has a little part in that story was really fascinating to deal with and

01:35address and to have him be part of the show, which is a little bit of a spoiler, but to have him be

01:39part of one of our episodes is very, very cool.
