A Double Life Unveiled
In The Family Plan, Mark Wahlberg stars as Dan Morgan, a man living a seemingly ordinary suburban life. A devoted husband and father, Dan’s life is filled with the mundane yet loving routines of family. However, beneath this facade of normalcy lies a dormant past filled with danger and elite skills. Once an accomplished government assassin, Dan’s past is a stark contrast to his present, but the shadows of his former life are about to resurface, threatening the peaceful existence he has built.
When figures from his concealed past re-emerge, Dan finds himself embarking on an unexpected journey. Alongside him are his unsuspecting family: his wife, played by Michelle Monaghan, and their three children. What unfolds is a cross-country road trip to Las Vegas, packed with the chaos and excitement of a family vacation, but underscored by the peril of Dan’s previous life as an assassin.

Dan Morgan (Mark Wahlberg) loves his quiet suburban life as a devoted husband, father of three and successful car salesman. But that’s only half the story. Decades earlier, he was an elite government assassin tasked with eliminating the world’s deadliest threats. When enemies from his past track him down, Dan packs his unsuspecting wife (Michelle Monaghan), angsty teen daughter, pro-gamer teen son and adorable 10-month-old baby into their minivan and takes off on an impromptu cross-country road trip to Las Vegas. Determined to protect his family — while treating them to the vacation of a lifetime — Dan must put his long-dormant skills into action, without revealing his true identity.
