Mickey Rourke, 71, is country cool as he rocks a straw cowboy hat and plants a kiss on longtime pal’s cheek after lunch in Beverly Hills

Mickey Rourke put on a loving display Tuesday when he stepped out with longtime friend and hairstylist Giuseppe Franco in Beverly Hills.

The 71-year-old artist planted a kiss on his acquaintance’s cheek after leaving an Italian cafe together.

The Academy Award-nominated actor — who recently shared his outspoken views on Alec Baldwin’s culpability in the Rust shooting — stood out while wearing a plaid trench coat over a low-cut T-shirt.

Rourke also wore slightly oversized and distressed dark blue jeans, which contrasted with bright white sneakers.

The star of The Wrestler completed his look for the day with a light beige straw cowboy hat.

The artist’s appearance took place just two weeks after it was announced that he would be starring in the upcoming action thriller Bring The Law.

According to DeadlineRourke will join a cast that includes Peter Facinelli and Nicky Whelan.

Bring The Law is about an emotionally devastated homicide detective who begins to unravel a corruption conspiracy in Los Angeles.

The feature, written by Josh Ridgway, also marks the directorial debut of Scout Taylor Compton.

The project’s production company, Hillin Entertainment, released a statement to speak about the Halloween actress’ directorial abilities.

It read in part: “Scout’s remarkable talent and ability as a director is undeniable. This project marks just the beginning of our fruitful collaboration.”

It was also said that the start of production on the film marked Compton’s “moment to step into the director’s chair.”

Bring The Law wrapped production earlier this month and currently has no scheduled premiere date.
