Actress Annette Bening was the lead actress in American Beauty
Iranian officials have said a Hollywood delegation should say sorry for films viewed as "insulting" to their country.
President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's cultural advisor said Iranian film-makers should refuse to meet the group, which includes actress Annette Bening.
The Wrestler has been banned in Iran for depicting a fighter called The Ayatollah, who tries to choke Mickey Rourke with an Iranian flag.
The visit has been hailed as the start of a new era in US-Iranian relations.
