Just as Mickey Rourke’s personal life hit a breaking point, his career unexpectedly came knocking again.
According to the actor’s longtime manager, Kimberly Hines, Rourke has received multiple movie offers in the days since news broke about his looming eviction—a twist of irony as he was simultaneously being forced out of the home he’d lived in for more than a decade.
“The good thing about this is that he got four movie offers since yesterday,” Hines told The Hollywood Reporter on Tuesday, January 6, explaining that the renewed interest came after media coverage of his housing crisis. “People are emailing him movie offers now, which is great because nobody’s been calling him for a long time.”
That career momentum arrived amid an emergency relocation and some crowdfunding drama. Hines said Rourke, 73, had to be removed quickly from the Los Angeles property as eviction proceedings advanced and the home’s condition deteriorated.
“They were changing the locks at his house on Tuesday,” she said. “We just wanted to get him out of there.”

Since then, The Wrestler actor was temporarily placed in a West Hollywood hotel while his team organized a new apartment, storage, movers, and care for his three dogs. According to Hines, the house itself had become unlivable.
“The state of his house was so bad,” she explained, citing “black mold,” “no running water,” and extensive water damage. The condition of the home meant most of Rourke’s belongings couldn’t be saved. “So basically, we can’t even move any of the furniture out,” she said. “All the furniture is completely destroyed.” Instead, the focus shifted to salvaging personal items and getting the Golden Globe-winning actor settled somewhere safe. “We got the dogs out. We got him set up. We got what he needs for the next week,” Hines added.
The scramble unfolded alongside public confusion over a GoFundMe launched on Rourke’s behalf—a campaign he later disavowed, calling it “humiliating,” and that he would never do something like that. Hines has since clarified that the fundraiser was created with his knowledge, and that any money raised would go directly to Rourke or be returned if he declines it.
Now, with housing stabilized and work inquiries resurfacing, Hines says the goal is simple: get Rourke back to what he does best. “We’re all here to help [him] and get him back on his feet,” she said. “Get him back making movies and telling stories and creating characters and being the Mickey Rourke that we all have known and love.”
