Mark Wahlberg and Will Ferrell, hot off Wahlberg’s ceremony awarding him a star on Hollywood’s Walk of Fame, turned up at New York’s Ziegfeld Theatre on Monday for the premiere of ‘The Other Guys,’ joining costars Eva Mendes, Samuel L. Jackson and others on a ‘red carpet’ styled to look like police tape.
Other cast members on hand included Steve Coogan,Rob Riggle, Horatio Sanz, Lindsay Sloane, Tess Kartel, Ray Stevenson and Brooke Shields, who appears in the movie as herself. Writer Chris Hency made the scene, as did director Adam McKay. Jackson brought wife LaTanya Richardson, and Ferrell had wife Viveca Paulin as his date.
Ice-T and Coco made it safely into town for the event, joining the likes of Star Jones, Jimmy Fallon, Damon Wayans Jr. and Matchbox Twenty frontman Rob Thomas. Click on the picture, above right, to launch a photo gallery of red carpet arrivals.
The after party was held at the Park restaurant in Manhattan. ‘The Other Guys,’ a cop comedy set in New York, opens in theaters Friday.
