Even though Mickey Rourke wraps up Immortals in Montreal this week, the impression he’s made on locals is sure to last long after he’s gone. Since Mickey started shooting Immortals in April, we’ve received several emails, tweets and comments from locals who have nothing but kind words to say about him!
One of them, Eyal, who sent us the photo above, told us, “Out of all the Hollywood stars I’ve met in Montreal, Mickey Rourke is by far the classiest. He was polite, welcomed conversation, even though he was waiting for his girlfriend, he took a moment to chit chat and snap a pic with me. Mickey is of a rare breed with a huge heart.”
Dave, who also thought Mickey seemed like a great guy, had his photo taken with the actor outside of the Intercontinental in Old Montreal.
Others who caught Mickey hanging out around town commented on how down to earth he seemed. One tipster told us, ” A friend and I were having lunch at McGill Plaza, and Mickey Rourke walked in with a tall, blonde. Anyway, very cool to see him just go to casual places like that.” Well another one of our readers, Alison, was impressed that he even hailed his own cab when she spotted him on St Catherine’s and Mansfield last month!

If I ran into any celebrity I’d want it to be Mickey Rourke. Not only is he a very great actor he’s a great and fascinating guy. He’s the only famous person I’d cross the street to see. Bravo Mickey – he keeps it real on-screen AND in life.
