À propos de cet audio
George Clooney has been everywhere these past few days with headlines buzzing over his performance in Noah Baumbach’s new film Jay Kelly, now showing in select theaters and generating impressive critical praise. According to NME, the film features Clooney in one of his most enjoyable performances to date, with The Film Stage calling Baumbach’s approach a joy to watch, and Metro dubbing it the best work Clooney and Adam Sandler have done in years. Playing an actor wrestling with the complexities of fame and family, Clooney’s performance is being tipped as Oscar-worthy, with CultureMap Austin describing it as forceful and nuanced as he navigates between public persona and private struggle. The movie also stars a high-wattage cast including Adam Sandler, Billy Crudup, and Greta Gerwig, and will debut on Netflix December 5, making it a likely centerpiece of awards chatter this season.
Clooney has also been making the rounds to promote Jay Kelly, including a packed ScreenTalk at London’s Barbican Centre on November 22 alongside Baumbach and cast. Fans and critics have been dissecting the film’s blurred line between Clooney’s own experiences and his character Jay, fueling speculation on talk shows and social media that he’s channeling aspects of his own life. However, Clooney emphasizes in interviews that while there are clear parallels, much is fictionalized for dramatic effect.
In a recent candid New York Times interview with Adam Sandler, Clooney shared advice from Paul Newman on avoiding isolation in the face of fame, a philosophy he says informed both his own life and his portrayal in Jay Kelly. People Magazine picked up the story, with Clooney reflecting warmly on Newman’s guidance and its ongoing influence on how he relates to the public and his ever-watchful fanbase.
On the business front, Page Six reports that Clooney, following his record-breaking Casamigos tequila sale, is teaming up again with Rande Gerber but shifting focus to the booming non-alcoholic beer market—a savvy pivot that industry insiders say could reshape the category, though further details remain tightly under wraps. No major deals have been announced this week, but analysts see long-term potential if Clooney’s Midas touch continues.
Meanwhile, social media is delighting in Clooney’s new round of public appearances, with #JayKelly trending and fans circulating clips of red carpet interviews and behind-the-scenes banter with Adam Sandler. Forbes and multiple wealth roundups have also reiterated that Clooney remains one of the richest actors in the world, with net worth estimates ranging between 500 and 750 million dollars, powered not just by box-office hits like Ocean’s Eleven and Gravity, but by his business prowess and strategic endorsements.
There are no confirmed negative stories or controversies this week, a testament to Clooney’s seasoned approach to fame. He remains as relevant and bankable as ever, both on screen and off.
