Mickey Rourke Archives

Mickey Rourke looks ghostly as he leaves a Hollywood nightclub on Thursday (October 29).

The 57-year-old Wrestler actor stepped out for a Halloween celebration in this get-up - he looks like his own version of The Joker, right?

Recently finishing Iron Man 2, Mickey will head to Durango, New Mexico to shoot Passion Play with Megan Fox. Megan filled MTV in on her role:

“There is a love story there,” Megan said; “it’s clearly not going to be a typical one. My character is basically a circus freak, she lives in a cage ’cause she has wings. She’s not an angel, but she has these giant wings that grow out of her back.

“She’s a freak and so she’s on display basically with the circus.”

Gwyneth Paltrow, who played the plucky assistant Pepper Potts in the original Iron Man, will be promoted to head of Stark Industries in the sequel but will face some romantic competition from Scarlett Johansson as the villain Black Widow (she has keen hand-to-hand combat skills).

Mickey Rourke plays Ivan Vanko, or Whiplash, a weapons dealer who acts as Tony Stark’s alter-ego.

Robert Downey Jr., of course, returns as Stark/Iron Man and Don Cheadle replaces Terrence Howard as Col. James ‘Rhodey’ Rhodes.
