Mickey Rourke still makes money but allegedly can't stop spending it
Mickey Rourke is believed to have a net worth of just $50,000 as of this writing, according to Celebrity Net Worth. That’s not much for someone with such a long Hollywood track record, but it seems more tied to his spending habits than his ability to make money.
American actor, screenwriter, and ex-boxer Mickey Rourke is currently facing a housing crisis, an eviction notice, and financial difficulties.
Reportedly, the GoFundMe is being run by Liya-Joelle Jones, who is described as a friend and a member of Rourke’s management team. Per the outlet, the veteran character actor reportedly received a three-day eviction notice on Dec. 18, after signing the lease in March 2025. The rent was initially $5,200 per month, then raised to $7,000.
Despite starring in hits like Iron Man 2, Mickey Rourke’s turbulent career and personal struggles left him with a surprisingly modest net worth.
