Mickey Rourke The Iron Man 2 Villain

Shockingly bad ass news from Variety. Rumor has it that Mickey Rourke is in talks to play the villain in Iron Man 2. Obviously flush with cash after dropping Terrence Howard who reportedly made more money then Downey for Iron Man they can now bring on some real power houses;

“Rourke is in discussions to play a villain described as Tony Stark’s Russian alter ego, a heavily tattooed bruiser who is in the arms trade and battles Iron Man in his own nuclear-powered armored suit.”

Seriously.. can you do better for a Villain? I think not! The speculation is the villain is Crimson Dynamo but its hard to say until things pan out more.
