Geroge Clooney BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
This week, George Clooney is dominating headlines with a candid and revealing cover story for Esquire’s October-November issue, where he invites readers inside his Italian lake house for an unfiltered look at life after sixty. In the profile, Clooney opens up about his nerves performing in Good Night, and Good Luck on Broadway, confessing that age brought a new vulnerability. Every night for one hundred shows, he rehearsed his lines obsessively, terrified of slipping in front of the crowds—proof that even Oscar winners aren’t immune to second acts and stage fright. On the home front, Clooney gets personal about raising his eight-year-old twins far from Hollywood’s glare. He’s opted for a farm in France rather than LA, giving his kids “a much better life,” free from paparazzi and insular celebrity culture. According to Esquire, he wants his children to feel true pride in their family, not just fame by association.
Publicly, Clooney is telling anyone who’ll listen that he’s winding down his career. Extra caught him reflecting on his 64 years and his new priorities; he’s had the career, the drive to succeed, and now he’s reveling in family time, admitting the physical joys of running after his kids are “going away quickly” but he still tries to keep up. He and Amal recently toasted their eleventh wedding anniversary with a quiet dinner—a rare understated moment for Hollywood’s ultimate power couple. Asked about the next decade, Clooney jokes that he’ll mostly be “gumming bread,” showing the self-effacing wit that made him an international favorite.
He tells AARP there’s “no rhyme or reason for who gets to age and who doesn’t” so he’s embracing whatever comes, living life fully without worrying about what lies ahead. On the business side, Clooney’s wealth, built from film and savvy deals—think the monumental sale of his Casamigos tequila brand—remains impressive, even if there are no splashy new business ventures in the headlines this week, according to Webex News.
Social media has been largely kind, echoing appreciation for Clooney’s honesty about aging, parenthood, and showbiz fatigue. So far, there’s little in the way of controversy or scandal—just the portrait of a superstar burnishing his legacy, opting for meaningful nights at home over the endless hustle of Hollywood events. For Clooney, both the man and the myth, life’s second act seems to be about fatherhood, reflection, and—true to form—a healthy dose of humor.
