Mickey Rourke has gone on the record to say that his co-star in the film Passion Play, Megan Fox, “is the best young actress I’ve ever worked with.”

Rourke continued

“I don’t know if a lot of her films have showcased her acting ability more than, say, being action-oriented, but she really stepped up the plate with this one and was very consistent and professional, beyond her years. At 23, I couldn’t do half of what she’s doing.”

So good to see Megan’s co-stars supporting her. She’s a very, very talented actress and if she weren’t so gorgeous – more people would recognize and admit it. That’s okay, all of that will come.

Bill Murray has joined the cast of Passion Play, Megan’s next movie, a romantic thriller. Bill Murray is a last-minute replacement for British actor Toby Kebbell.

He’ll play the bad guy opposite leads Megan Fox and Mickey Rourke. Murray will play a gangster named Happy, who reportedly sets out to destroy the budding relationship between a down-and-out trumpet player (Rourke) and a “winged beauty (Fox) who’s now part of a sideshow attraction at a carnival.” This one sounds very, very, very interesting!

Megan Fox is currently shooting the film in New Mexico. Her character is described as an angel in 1950s Los Angeles who helps save a troubled trumpet player (Mickey Rourke).
