Dockery spoke with ScreenRant to discuss how Flight Risk felt like a play and share anticipation for the upcoming Downton Abbey swan song.

Like many, Michelle Dockery was surprised to see her Flight Risk co-star, Mark Wahlberg, with his bald look in the new Mel Gibson movie.

"Flight Risk"—director Mel Gibson’s new action thriller starring Mark Wahlberg—is targeting a No. 1 debut at the weekend box office.

The premise is simple: Michelle Dockery plays U.S. Marshal Madolyn, tasked with transporting wiseass accountant Winston (Topher Grace) on a prop plane from Alaska to Seattle. Daryl (Mark Wahlberg), their shady pilot, is secretly working for the bad guys and tasked with killing Winston before he can testify. That’s it. That’s the setup.

NEW YORK — Critics lambasted it and audiences didn’t grade it much better. But despite the turbulence, Mel Gibson’s “Flight Risk” managed to open No. 1 at the box office with a modest $12 million, according to studio estimates Sunday.

Wahlberg plays a pilot flying a federal agent (Michelle Dockery) and a fugitive (Topher Grace) across Alaska in the thrilling flick. Wahlberg and his wife Durham, who tied the knot in 2009, share four kids: Ella, 20, Michael, 18, Brendan, 15 and Grace, 14, who all found their dad’s new do rather funny.

After watching Mel Gibson's latest movie, Flight Risk, which stars Mark Wahlberg, Michelle Dockery, and Topher Grace, it makes sense why Lionsgate moved it to a January 2025 release.

Lionsgate's advertising campaign for "Flight Risk" credits its latest film to "the award-winning director of ‘Braveheart,' ‘Apocalypto' and ‘Hacksaw Ridge'," which seems a circumspect way of recognizing Mel Gibson as its helmer.

Mark Wahlberg stars in the genre pic, which marks Gibson's first directorial effort in nearly a decade. Elsewhere, Steven Soderbergh's artsy haunted house thriller 'Presence' opened in 1,750 cinemas.
