2 Guys, '2 Guns'...Denzel & Wahlberg to Join Forces?

Both have more than proven themselves as elite action movie stars, now Denzel Washington and Mark Wahlberg will possibly bring their collective A-list power together in a film for the first time ever.  Denzel is currently in negotiations to join the movie adaptation of the graphic novel 2 Guns by Steven Grant which already has Marky Mark attached to headline, according to Deadline.  2 Guns will also reunite Wahlberg with Contraband director Baltasar Kormakur for a promising script penned by Blake Masters (Law & Order: LA).

Denzel, whose next action flick Safe House with Ryan Reynolds will hit us this Friday (February 10th), will single-handedly propel 2 Guns into a movie I'll actually pay to see in theater, if and when he decides to put his John Hancock on the dotted line.  Sorry folks, Wahlberg just isn't a big enough draw to get me into the movie theater these days.

According to comingsoon.net, 2 Guns "is a pulp story about cops and thieves and the men that are something in between. In the graphic novel, Trench has targeted a local bank to rob, and asked Steadman in on the job. Trench figures it's a great way to score – considering it's a cover for mob money. They'll be thieves ripping off thieves. But what Steadman doesn't know is that Trench is a DEA agent. And what Trench doesn't know is that Steadman's got his own secret and isn't who he appears to be."

Does this sound like the perfect Denzel/Wahlberg vehicle or what?  Add the two of them together here, and you've got one of hell of a blockbuster on your hands.
