Mickey Rourke may have cut his usual fee for The Expendables as a favour to his old pal Sylvester Stallone, but it seems his goodwill isn’t going to extend to the sequel.
It’s a MASSIVE shame, Rourke was by far the best thing in Expendables - his speech about his time in Bosnia involved such great acting it felt weirdly out of place.
Sure, Chuck Norris, Jean-Claude Van Damme and possibly Nicolas Cage and John Travolta will be joining the rest of the Expendables crew for the follow-up, but it’s simply not going to be the same without Mickey.
Rourke is going to make something called Seven Psychopaths instead. It's about a screenwriter who kidnaps a gangster’s dog.
Oh, Mickey, what a pity.
