Hollywood actor Mark Wahlberg's career has "drastically changed" since his role in Martin Scorsese's The Departed landed him an Oscar nomination. Wahlberg is shocked at the response he received following his performance in the Academy Award-winning film.

The 35-year-old says, "I've probably had 10 phone calls from some of the top directors in the business all saying they would love for me to do their next film, so I think that's pretty cool.

"It's been remarkable how drastically things have changed."
