Would you pick this man up? Mickey Rourke is waiting for his ride outside the Equinox gym after an afternoon workout. HIs neon spandex leggings are eye-catching but his face always seems to be changing somewhat. His hair is pulled back and up in a tiny pony tail. He recently finished filming “Skin Traffik” in which he was reunited with his “The Pope of Greenwich Village” costars, Eric Roberts and Daryl Hannah thirty years later! (If you haven’t seen it, “Pope” is a great movie!)

MICKEY ROURKE AND ERIC ROBERTS 27 YEARS LATER

Mickey Rourke and Eric Roberts have been pals since they filmed “The Pope of Greenwich Village” (a great movie) in which they played two losers, back in 1984. (top photo) When Mickey gave his Best Actor acceptance speech at The Independent Spirit Awards when he won for “The Wrestler” in 2009, he implored Hollywood moguls to hire his buddy Eric Roberts and give him a chance for a comeback. Eric showed up for Mickey’s hand and footprint ceremony at Grauman’s Chinese Theater this week.

Sylvester Stallone is all pumped up and ready to start filming “The Expendables” which he wrote, will star in, and direct. It’s about an international team of mercenaries whose secret mission is to assassinate an evil South American dictator. And what a cast: besides Stallone, there’s Dolph Lundgren, Jet Li, Mickey Rourke, Jason Statham, Eric Roberts, and possibly Arnold Schwarzenegger and 50 Cent. It sounds like those “Dirty Dozen”/”Magnificent Seven” movies from the 60’s.
