what kind of irony?

Can someone clarify for me the type of irony involved in an actor having to apologize for his real-life violent behavior while on a press tour to promote a movie celebrating a man's redemption through beating the crap out of people?

reminds me of the south park episode wherein russell crowe has his own TV show. the premise? he travels the world beating people up.
