Mickey Moves Out Of Sin City
Latino Review — Mickey Moves Out Of Sin City By George 'El Guapo' Roush on December 7, 2008 [image] From Coming Soon comes news of Mickey Rourke taking a pass on playing Marv again: "No, I'm not interested in that right now. That's not a reality right now. It's pissing in the wind," Rourke admitted. "There's different factions going different directions there. I don't know. That's three hours of make up and I'm claustrophobic, so I'm going to have to work something out." Hey, if he doesn't do it, he doesn't do it. Personally, I don't care either way if Sin city 2 gets made or not. I enjoyed the first one, but the thought of seeing more was never that ...

Rourke Uninterested in Return to Sin City?
At The Movies - Film News and Reviews — After playing a washed-up wrestler, Mickey Rourke is one step away from playing a washed-up member of a ’80s hair band.  A few years ago, Mickey Rourke would probably have been considered washed-up by most people in Hollywood. His turn in Sin City won him some positive attention, but he still wasn’t really on people’s radar. Now, though, he’s winning raves for his starring role in Darren Aronofsky’s The Wrestler. Oscar talk is in the air for the talented Mr. Rourke. Rourke’s long been expected to return to Sin City, but when ...

Will Mickey Rourke pass on 'Sin City 2'?
The Screening Log — Just last Friday, I passed on the good news that "Sin City 2" may actually be moving forward, and that shooting for the sequel could begin as early as April (read about it here). Today, however, I read something not so positive. According to ComingSoon, Mickey Rourke recently said he may not return as Marv in the follow-up to the 2005 surprise hit. "No, I'm not interested in that right now. That's not a reality right now. It's pissing in the wind," he told ComingSoon. "That's three hours of make up and I'm claustrophobic, so I'm going to have to work something ...

Sin City 2 update
Total Film News — Sin City 2 update Filming in April, but minus Mickey? BY James White Dec 8th 2008 6:06AM FILED UNDER: Movie news Be the first to comment Rosario Dawson has gone on record stating that Sin City 2 is written and ready to shoot this April. Dawson s comments to IESB come after months of rumour and speculation, with little official confirmation from the first movie s directing team, Frank Miller and Robert Rodriguez. And while the pair still haven t made any official announcements, Dawson s remarks that she s ready to reprise her role as Gail lend some heavy credence to the idea. No Rourke? Still, even if the movie does ...

Mickey Rourke Not Interested In Sin City 2
The Movie Blog — I really enjoyed the first Sin City movie for several reasons… and one of the big ones was the incredible performance of Mickey Rourke who sort of reintroduced himself to movie fans in the role of Marv. A hard nosed bad ass who shows his soft side when faced with the affection of a prostitute. Oh… and then kicks lots of ass. But Sin City 2 has been mired in a lot of confusion. One person says it’s happening, another says it isn’t. Suddenly Frank Miller thinks he’s a director and tells everyone it’s moving forward while others don’t sound so sure. Now Mickey Rourke has added ...

Rourke says no Sin City 2
Filmstalker — SinCity-Marv.jpg It's all a bit confusing for Mickey Rourke at the moment as well as for the audience who are awaiting Sin City 2, as we might be hearing from Frank Miller and Rosario Dawson that the film is a go, but from Mickey Rourke we're hearing something a little different. Well we are now anyway. He's been quoted as saying he was ready to star again in the film if he was wanted, and so we assumed that when Miller started talking about the film he would be on. Perhaps not. Speaking at the press junket for The Wrestler , Mickey Rourke is sounding a little less than positive about it. "No, I'm not ...
