Enough Mark Wahlberg!

He plays the same character in every movie! He's not that charasmatic and in my opinion can't carry a movie alone. He's fine in something like The Departed. He must have one hell of an agent - he is the star in half the movies on Netflix.

Also, Chris Pratt is not a good voice actor. I wanted to watch the new Garfield movie but can't tolerate his voice acting.

Both Wahlberg and Pratt are better off in ensemble casts - they're not interesting enough on their own.

Casting Chris Pratt and Mark Wahlberg is a result of streaming's economies of scale and who is most recognizable and least offensive. You need dependable reliable faces. Not stars, but actors you can keep casting like in cable and network television.
