Stu will be directed and written by Rosalind Ross with Wahlberg and his manager Stephen Levinson set to produce.
Wahlberg recently wrapped filming for Sony’s long-in development live-action film adaptation of Uncharted and Lionsgate’s canine adventure film Arthur the King.
After Wahlberg got impressed with Ross, he finally decided to move the film forward.
Sources report that a production start date on the film is currently being eyed for sometime next month.
