Slight Casting Issue: I Mean For Reals?

So it looks as if it's serious that Mickey Rourke (the tragic figure on the left, obviously) is going to be playing Gareth Thomas (The not remotely tragic figure on the right) in an upcoming bio pic of the gay rugby player.

So, Hollywood, tell me. You have a GAY RUGBY PLAYER (literally the focus of 50% of non american gay porn — that's just what I hear of course —) played by Mickey Rourke. Yes, he is often times a remarkable actor, but look at him.

That is all.
