Nick Nolte leaving a Medical Building in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles, California - 24.02.09

Like Mickey Rourke, Nolte plays a washed-up fighter, but, in Warrior, his heroics are in mixed martial arts, not wrestling.

Nolte's character is also a Vietnam vet and recovering alcoholic in the Gavin O'Connor film, which starts shooting in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania in April (09), according to Entertainment Weekly.
