«It’s not my role»: George Clooney refuses to play romantic heroes
Due to age
Hollywood actor George Clooney, who is usually seen on screen as a heartthrob hero, is ending his career in romantic films. The actor admitted that he will no longer star in rom-coms because of his age, as he sees no point in «competing with 25-year-old actors» at the age of 63.
Clooney shared his decision on the 60 Minutes podcast, as reported by Deadline. According to the star, he does not feel suitable for such roles.
«I’m 63 years old. I’m not trying to compete with 25-year-old actors. It’s not my role. I will never do romantic movies again», Clooney stated.
However, the actor quickly assured that his film career is not over – he will simply focus on other roles.
The last time Clooney appeared in a romantic role was in the 2022 comedy Ticket to Paradise, where he played a married couple with Julia Roberts.
