Per the filing, Rourke started leasing the property in March 2025 with the monthly rent initially starting at $5,200. The rent was later increased to $7,000 a month.
Goldie is requesting the $59,100 Rourke allegedly owes in past-due rent as well as compensation for attorney fees, the documents state. He is also asking for the “forfeiture” of their rental agreement.
PEOPLE reached out to a representative for Rourke, as well as Goldie’s attorney, but did not immediately receive a response.
According to the property’s listing on Zillow, the nearly 1,600-square-foot home includes three bedrooms and two full bathrooms.
The 1926 build is described as a “nicely upgraded Spanish bungalow” with an open floor plan and access to a “grassy” backyard.

Mickey Rourke in 'Celebrity Big Brother UK'

At the time, Rourke's manager, Kimberly Hines, addressed his early departure from the show in a statement shared with PEOPLE, and claimed the series had disrespected the star by "publicly embarrassing him" and refusing to pay him his dues.
"There’s no question that when Big Brother booked Mickey Rourke, they were fully aware of both his public persona and how it aligned with his Hollywood rebel image," Hines wrote at the time, adding that the show knew his presence would be "explosive, controversial and attention-grabbing — and that’s exactly what they got, and more."
