The story follows Spenser who, fresh out of prison, is sucked back into Boston’s underbelly as he uncovers the truth about a sensational murder and the twisted conspiracy behind it. Duke, 31, will portray Hawk, Spenser’s close friend and an equally tough, but a somewhat shady image of Spenser himself. Sean O’Keefe has penned the screenplay for the film, which will be produced by Neal H Moritz alongside Wahlberg, Stephen Levinson and Berg. The movie is expected to start production later this year. Prior to being a part of the Marvel feature as M’Baku, Duke has starred TV shows like Person of Interest. He will also be seen in Jordan Peele’s upcoming thriller _Us_ , starring Oscar winner Lupita Nyong'o , Jack Nicholson’s grandson Duke Nicholson , The Handmaid’s Tale star Elisabeth Moss , and Tom Heidecker.
