Actor and former professional boxer Mickey Rourke has entered the Celebrity Big Brother house for the 2025 season. However, his time in the house got off to a controversial start when he made inappropriate comments towards fellow housemates, including making derogatory remarks towards a lesbian housemate. Rourke was reprimanded by Big Brother in the Diary Room for his language and behavior.
Despite the rocky start, Rourke is known for his impressive acting career, with roles in films such as Iron Man 2, The Wrestler, and Barfly. His portrayal of wrestler Randy ‘The Ram’ Robinson in The Wrestler earned him critical acclaim and several awards, including a Golden Globe and BAFTA for Best Actor.
Rourke, who has just under 450,000 social media followers, has no expectations for his time in the Big Brother house, stating that he has never watched the show before. He is set to appear in several upcoming film projects, including The Roaring Game, Bring the Law, and 3 Days Rising.
Fans can catch Rourke on Celebrity Big Brother, which airs Sunday to Friday on ITV and ITVX. Stay tuned to see how the rest of his time in the house unfolds.
