The folks over at “USA Today” have gotten ahold of the first still of Mickey Rourke as a chain smoking West Texas cowboy in the upcoming drama/thriller 13, a remake of a French film centering on a guy getting himself mixed up in “an underground world of power, violence, and chance where men gamble behind closed doors on the lives of other men.” The gambling on the lives of other men apparently involves a game of Russian Roulette.
