I thought it was boxingRourke wanted to a real life tough guy and crawl around in the dirt with the criminal element.Blew his career. His choice. In fact, he's still crawling around in the dirt with criminal element by appearing in a polanski film.
I hear his point about Tom Cruise, though. He is a global superstar, and takes safe scripts that will generate millions of dollars. His choice.

Mickey Rourke criticizes 'irrelevant' Tom Cruise for playing the 'same effing part for 35 years'
Rourke says he has appreciation for actors trying to "stretch" their skills with different types of roles. Whereas Cruise has "been doing the same effing part for 35 years."www.yahoo.com
Don't expect Mickey Rourke to ever play Tom Cruise's wingman.
The Wrestler actor, 69, was asked about Cruise's recent billion dollar box office success with Top Gun: Maverick and gave his honest opinion about his "irrelevant" peer.
"That doesn't mean s*** to me," Rourke said on Piers Morgan Uncensored. "The guy's been doing the same effing part for 35 years, ya know? I've got no respect for that."

Morgan then asked, "You don't think Tom Cruise is a good actor?" — and Rourke made his stance even more clear.
"I think he's irrelevant in my world," replied Rourke, who has been filming Roman Polanski’s upcoming film The Palace.

Top Gun: Maverick, the long-awaited sequel to the 1986 original starring Cruise as a Navy pilot, came out May 27 and has raked in $1.18 billion internationally so far.
Last week, Miles Teller — who appeared in Maverick — said he's had "conversations" with "T.C." about a Top Gun 3. "It's all up to Tom," he added. "We'll see."
