Philip Andre "Mickey" Rourke Jr. (born September 16, 1952) is an American actor and former boxer who has appeared primarily as a leading man in drama, action, and thriller films. During the star of the 1980s, Rourke played supporting roles in films like Body Heat (1981) and Diner (1982), before portraying leading roles in films like The Motorcycle Boy in Rumble Fish (1983), Charlie Moran in The Pope of Greenwich Village (1984), Captain Stanley White in Year of the Dragon and John Gray in 9½ Weeks (1986). He received critical praise for his work in the Charles Bukowski biopic Barfly and the horror mystery Angel Heart (both 1987). In 1991, following a string of critical and commercial failures, Rourke—who trained as a boxer in his early years—left acting and became a professional boxer for a time. After retiring from boxing in 1994, Rourke returned to acting and had supporting roles in several films such as The Rainmaker (1997), Buffalo '66 (1998), Animal Factory, Get Carter (both 2000), The Pledge (2001), Once Upon a Time in Mexico (2003), Man on Fire (2004) and Domino (2005). In 2005, Rourke made a comeback in mainstream Hollywood circles with a lead role in the neo-noir action thriller Sin City, for which he won awards from the Chicago Film Critics Association, the Irish Film and Television Awards, and the Online Film Critics Society. This comeback culminated in his portraying aging wrestler Randy 'The Ram' Robinson in the sports drama film The Wrestler (2008). For the role, Rourke won the Golden Globe Award and BAFTA Award for Best Actor, and received a nomination for the Academy Award for Best Actor. After this, Rourke appeared in several commercially successful films; Iron Man 2, The Expendables (both 2010) and Immortals (2011), before primarily going on to work in independent and direct-to-video productions.

In the lawless outer reaches of the galaxy, the cocky Terran scavenger Peter Quill (Nathan Fillion), known only to himself as Star-Lord, lives by his wits and the 90s alt-rock anthems on his Walkman. After stealing a mysterious and powerful orb, he becomes the galaxy's most wanted man, hunted by the relentless Kree fanatic Ronan the Accuser (Daniel Day-Lewis). To escape, Quill is forced into an uneasy alliance with a bizarre group of cosmic outlaws: Gamora (Kate Beckinsale), the deadly, conflicted daughter of a cosmic tyrant; Drax (Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson), a hulking warrior driven by a singular thirst for vengeance against Ronan; and the inseparable bounty-hunting duo of Rocket (voiced by Steve Buscemi), a wisecracking, genetically-engineered raccoon, and Groot (voiced by Morgan Freeman), his sentient tree bodyguard. When they discover the orb contains an Infinity Stone, a weapon of unimaginable destruction that Ronan intends to use to cleanse the planet Xandar, their selfish quest for survival turns into a desperate mission. The Guardians must put aside their greed and grievances and rally the ragtag Ravager fleet for a last-ditch battle to stop Ronan's genocidal crusade. This band of outlaws, losers, and misfits might just be the galaxy's only hope, if they don't kill each other first.
