“Arthur the King” is based on the true story about a team participating in an adventure race - the most extreme conceived. Mark Wahlberg plays team leader Michael Light of The American team, that is making a last-ditch effort to score big, racing through the jungles, mountains, and rivers of the Dominican Republic. Along the treacherous route he bonds with a stray dog he names Arthur. The true story had the involvement of a Swedish team in Ecuador, though.
Michael is basically seeking redemption after the fallout of his last race leaves him as a laughing stock on Instagram. He is undoubtedly an adrenaline junkie who finds it difficult to settle into a regular job working for his former military-turned-realtor father. His love for his wife and daughter are unquestionable but his love for the sport is tearing him apart. He does not want his legacy to the sport be a viral image of his losing team literally stuck in the mud.
