Mark Wahlberg and Ricky Gervais join Ellen on the 83rd episode of season 7 of The Ellen DeGeneres Show.

Mark Wahlberg, known for his roles in films such as "The Fighter" and "Ted," talks to Ellen about his new movie "Deepwater Horizon." The film is based on the real-life events that occurred on the Deepwater Horizon oil rig in the Gulf of Mexico in 2010. Wahlberg plays the role of Mike Williams, the chief electronics technician on the rig. He discusses how he prepared for the role and how important it was to him to portray Williams' story accurately. They also talk about Wahlberg's charity work and his family life.

Next up is Ricky Gervais, the comedian and creator of the hit TV show "The Office". He tells Ellen about his new film "David Brent: Life on the Road," which follows the character David Brent from "The Office" as he pursues his lifelong dream of being a musician. Gervais also talks to Ellen about his love for animals and his outspoken views on animal rights.

Ellen then plays a game with Mark and Ricky called "Never Have I Ever," where they have to answer personal questions truthfully by holding up a paddle that says "I Have" or "I Have Never." The game is filled with laughs and surprises as the three of them reveal things about themselves that they may have not wanted to share.

Finally, Mark Wahlberg surprises a fan in the audience by giving her tickets to see his new movie "Deepwater Horizon" and a signed script from the film. The fan is visibly overjoyed and Mark's act of kindness brings the audience to their feet in applause.

The episode ends with Ellen thanking her guests and promoting the release of "Deepwater Horizon" and "David Brent: Life on the Road."
