Marisa Tomei, who won an Oscar for her role in 2001's In The Bedroom, has agreed to play a stripper in the new film by Requiem For A Dream director Darren Aronofsky.
The Wrestler – which is being filmed in New York and New Jersey – stars Mickey Rourke as an out-of-shape former grapple king, who has a heart attack and leaves the business. He then moves in with a stripper, played by Tomei, and attempts to strike up a bond with her son.
Tomei is no stranger to baring all for the camera, having appeared in a state of undress in 1998 teen flick Slums Of Beverly Hills.
Rourke, for his part, looks ridiculous. Again.
