Netflix dropped the trailer for its upcoming action-comedy release, 'Spenser Confidential' starring Mark Wahlberg ('The Fighter') and Winston Duke ('Black Panther') that also sees Post Malone playing a key role. While fans have pretty much seen Wahlberg and Duke on the big screen, Malone will be making his first concrete role with this flick. Needless to say. Twitter is abuzz with fans sharing their thoughts. 

"Wait! @markwahlberg and @PostMalone are in a movie together!!! Why does March have to be so far away!" wrote a fan.

The official synopsis reads: "When two Boston Police officers are murdered, ex-cop Spenser (Mark Wahlberg) teams up with his no-nonsense roommate, Hawk (Winston Duke), to take down criminals in this action-comedy. Spenser (Mark Wahlberg) — an ex-cop better known for making trouble than solving it — just got out of prison and is leaving Boston for good. But first, he gets roped into helping his old boxing coach and mentor, Henry (Alan Arkin), with a promising amateur. "

"That's Hawk (Winston Duke), a brash, no-nonsense MMA fighter convinced he'll be a tougher opponent than Spenser ever was. When two of Spenser’s former colleagues turn up murdered, he recruits Hawk and his foul-mouthed ex-girlfriend, Cissy (Iliza Shlesinger), to help him investigate and bring the culprits to justice. From director Peter Berg, SPENSER CONFIDENTIAL is an action-comedy co-starring Bokeem Woodbine, Marc Maron, and Post Malone. Inspired by Robert B. Parker’s Wonderland, a best-selling novel by Ace Atkins."

'Spenser Confidential', directed by Peter Berg, premieres on Netflix on March 6.
