Mickey Rourke To Star In 'Passion Plays'

Passion Plays
Mickey Rourke keeps wrestling down the gigs. The resurgent actor has attached himself to "Passion Plays," in what will mark the first dramatic role he has signed on for since winning a Golden Globe and other kudos for his performance in "The Wrestler."

Mitch Glazer will write and direct the indie tale, the logline of which is being kept under wraps. The film is said to be seeking a female lead opposite Rourke.
