Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg will reunite on screen and on the red carpet for comedy film Daddy’s Home.

The film stars Ferrell as a mild-mannered radio executive called Brad who is trying to earn the affection of his stepchildren. Complicating matters, their real father Dusty (Wahlberg) arrives, forcing him to compete for their love.

Ferrell and Wahlberg starred in 2010 action comedy The Other Guys, where they played New York cops Allen Gamble and Terry Hoitz.

This time, however, they are opponents rather than partners. The stakes are raised as the two try to win round the children with tickles, money, a tree house, a dog and even a pony.

Free-loading cool dad Dusty frequently gets the best of Brad, who is desperate for the children to see him as their daddy.
