George Clooney<\/strong> is on a hair-trigger over his age, his talent, his marriage to Amal<\/strong> and his disastrous attempts to meddle in politics \u2014 and sources say his increasingly nasty outbursts mean the suave, sophisticated image he has long cultivated is shattered for good.<\/p>\n

\u201cDo people say that I only play myself? I don\u2019t give a s**t,\u201d he recently railed in an interview with Variety<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cHave you ever tried playing yourself? It\u2019s hard to do,\u201d he added defensively.<\/p>\n

As reported, the Syriana actor has been grappling with age and marital issues, as well as criticism over how he kicked Joe Biden<\/strong> to the curb and backed the failed presidential bid of Kamala Harris<\/strong> in the 2024 election.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m 63 years old, dude \u2014 I can\u2019t do 50 takes,\u201d he said about making the upcoming Netflix film Jay Kelly. \u201cI don\u2019t have it in me. I\u2019ve got the acting range from A to B.\u201d<\/p>\n

Insiders say George\u2019s foul moods are more frequent these days because Amal, 47, is fed up with him spending too much time on his projects and political meddling and not enough time at home with her and their 8-year-old twins, Ella<\/strong> and Alexander<\/strong>. She notably did not attend opening night for George\u2019s Broadway run of Good Night, and Good Luck.<\/p>\n

\u201cEveryone expected Amal to be at the opening,\u201d says an insider. \u201cHer absence only increased chatter that their marriage is not in a good place.\u201d<\/p>\n

His fuming in the recent interview \u201cgoes to show how sensitive he is to criticism and getting old,\u201d says a source. \u201cIt must be stressful at home, or why else would he go off like this?<\/p>\n

\u201cGeorge has been a time bomb for a while now.\u201d<\/p>\n

Insiders say Clooney has been irritable with friends, but that Amal gets the brunt of it.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey don\u2019t tend to fight outright; they withdraw from each other,\u201d says an insider. \u201cAmal does her best to shake him out of these moods, but he\u2019s getting increasingly cantankerous. He snaps a lot quicker than he used to.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThey\u2019ve had their issues, and George isn\u2019t helping by being so tightly wound. People around him are telling him to lighten up.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"George Clooney is on a hair-trigger over his age, his talent, his marriage to Amal and his disastrous…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":10567,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[263],"tags":[18,117,10232,2445,19,17,10233,10234,327],"class_list":{"0":"post-10566","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-movies","8":"tag-eire","9":"tag-entertainment","10":"tag-george-clooney","11":"tag-getty-images","12":"tag-ie","13":"tag-ireland","14":"tag-joe-biden","15":"tag-marital-issues","16":"tag-movies"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10566","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10566"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10566\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/10567"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10566"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=10566"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=10566"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
