 When _Brazilian Job, The (2008)_ (qv) was pushed further back in  development, Mark Wahlberg (I) (qv), director  Brian De Palma (qv)s first choice, was once again available for  shooting. However, Wahlberg was offered the chance to work with  Martin Scorsese (qv) on _Departed, The (2006)_ (qv) and thusly  turned down the role, which eventually went to Aaron Eckhart (qv).
