Academy Award-winning actor <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/george-clooney">George Clooney</a> came down hard on two <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/hollywood">Hollywood</a> directors during a newly published <a href="https://www.gq-magazine.co.uk/article/george-clooney-brad-pitt-cover-interview-2024">interview</a> with GQ.
The 63-year-old said he’d never again work with BAFTA and Golden Globe winner David O. Russell. “The older you get, time allotment is very different,” Clooney told the outlet in a joint interview with Brad Pitt. “Five months out of your life is a lot.”
“And so it’s not just like, ‘Oh, I’m going to go do a really good film, like ‘Three Kings,’ and I’m going to have a miserable f*** like David O. Russell making my life hell. Making every person in the crew’s life hell,&#8217;” he continued. “It’s not worth it. Not at this point in my life. Just to have a good product.”
Clooney appeared in the 1999 comedy war film written and directed by Russell alongside Mark Wahlberg, Ice Cube, and Spike Jonze. The movie follows four American soldiers attempting to steal a hidden stockpile of Saddam Hussein&#8217;s gold in the aftermath of Operation Desert Storm.
Russell is known for working on hit films, including “The Fighter” (2010), “Silver Linings Playbook” (2012), and “American Hustle” (2013).
Clooney also aired his beef with director Quentin Tarantino, seemingly referencing the two-time Academy Award winner&#8217;s comment about Clooney not having a hit “in this millennium.”

“Quentin said some s*** about me recently, so I’m a little irritated by him,” the actor said. “He did some interview where he was naming movie stars, and he was talking about you, and somebody else, and then this guy goes, ‘Well, what about George?’ He goes, he’s not a movie star. And then he literally said something like, ‘Name me a movie since the millennium.’ And I was like, ‘Since the millennium? That’s kind of my whole f***ing career.’&#8221;
Clooney said, “So now I’m like, all right, dude, f*** off. I don’t mind giving him s***. He gave me s***.”
Despite his negative remarks, the actor said he felt “really lucky” to have the opportunity to “work with these great directors.”
“Director and screenplay is what keeps you alive,” Clooney told GQ. “And I learned that after doing some really bad films. You can’t make a good film out of a bad script. You can’t do it. You can make a bad film out of a good script. You can f*** it up.”
