Mickey Rourke is really determined to nail his character in the upcoming Iron Man 2 film, and he’s traveling back to his character’s mainland to do some research.
In the movie, Rourke will play the Russain Villain, Whiplash. In order to get in the mindset of an evil Russain, Rourke paid visit to the Butyrka prison in Moscow. While on the tour, he picked the brains of the guards and even asked to be briefly locked in a cell.
First rumored to have taken a mess of steroids to get in character for The Wrestler, now shmoozing with Russian prisoners to become a Russian villain. Mickey is back!
Interesting to see what he comes up with.
