Mickey Rourke Not Interested In Sin City 2

Marv-Sin-City.jpgI 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 to the doubt surrounding the movie by basically saying he’s not all that interested in doing the film. The good folks over at ComingSoon give us this:

“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.”

It’s not like Rourke is hurting for work either. He’s getting lots of Oscar buzz for his role in the upcoming film “The Wrestler” which everyone is saying just rules (I’m watching it tomorrow), so I highly doubt this is just him playing the game trying to get a bigger pay cheque. Rourke always struck me as the kind of guy who just says what he wants.

Personally… I’m getting less and less interested in a Sin City 2. I’m going to totally lose interest if Marv isn’t in there… and I’ll totally avoid it if Frank Miller directs it alone.

What about you. How is your interest level for Sin City 2 movie holding up?
