Mickey Rourke has hailed Megan Fox Hollywood's "best young actress" after she impressed him on the set of their movie Passion Play.

The Wrestler star appears opposite Fox, who plays a "circus freak" with wings who is under the control of a ruthless gangster and is eventually rescued by Rourke's character.
 
And Rourke was left in awe of Fox's talent and professionalism - insisting she's one of the most promising movie stars in Hollywood.
 
He says, "(She) is the best young actress I've ever worked with.

"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 (to) 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."

Passion Play is just one of four movie project for Rourke this year as his career continues to soar.

This summer he takes on the role of Whiplash in Iron Man 2 before teaming up with Sylvester Stallone, Jet Li and Jason Statham for The Expendables. 13 is also out this year.
