Is he acting? Producing? I hear and see nothing about him.

He does a ton of producing (according to imdb he is executive producing three projects at the moment -- two in production and one in post -- and also acting as producer on three other projects in production or development). He's done some smaller acting projects in the last few years including an upcoming Noah Baumbach film and that schlocky romcom withe Julia Roberts from a couple years ago. He directed the Tender Bar (2021) and The Boys in the Boat (2023) and has a TV projects he's attached to as director that is in development.

So actually sounds like he's pretty busy in terms of his day job as actor-director-producer. Some of these projects are smaller and have shorter or less involved time commitments but he's very wealthy and in his 60s -- a lot of people would simply be retired or in some kind of figurehead role with no responsibilities while they mostly play golf and travel at this point. He's working quite a bit even if largely behind the camera. He has tilted his work much more toward directing and producing ever since he played Batman -- his paycheck on that job was big enough that it allowed him to not really need to act for a living and only do projects as he wants to. It's interesting to me that while he tends to choose more intellectual and darker projects for directing and producing he seems to base his acting projects almost entirely on just getting to work with his friends in fun locations -- the Oceans films and that Roberts romcom are not great movies but they were probably pretty fun to make and shot on location in vacation destinations.

He also said he wants to spend time with his kids, seems like he and Amal have both structured their careers to make them the priority. Nice that they're able to do that.

The first one is decent but doesn't hold up well. The rest are not good. They are mostly star power and vibes. Which is fun! It was conceived as a modern day Rat Pack movie and those weren't great films either. It's just enjoyable to watch a group of superstars all in the same movie who appear to be enjoying themselves.

Is she still teaching at Columbia, too?

She looks beautiful and my gd it must take a lot of work to keep that up. He is looking really old all of a sudden. I hope he's not sick. He looks like he got very skinny and sallow. Maybe this is his curse for coming after Biden.

I thought it was hilarious when people were falling over themselves to say how "age appropriate" she was too. Like maybe in Hollywood 17 years is nothing, but that's a lot!

Keanu and his gf are age appropriate. George Clooney is a cradle snatcher and Amal a granddad lover. I remember the impassioned discussion about how she was proof men like smarts and I was thinking hello.. she is a baby compared to him.

George Clooney wants to fancy himself a power broker but the buck ends politically here. They used him to bring down Biden and don’t be surprised if suddenly they find themselves out of the spotlight.

Granddad is a bit far fetch. It is too much of an aged difference for me, but 17 years makes GC a teenage father to Amal, not granddad.

Uhm no. People are whigged out about ten years. 17 years is a huge age difference. She is in her forties and he is in his sixties. Just because she is a lawyer doesn’t negate that.
Good luck playing nursemaid.
He may have been the most handsome man in his prime but age stops for no one. Welcome to the viagra over there.

i mean, let's face it - once you reach your 40s-50s, you just don't know what health stuff is in store for you. even if you marry someone your exact age, you can have some unpleasant bodily surprises.

Agreed and also wealthy people carry age easier. Better healthcare and better diets and less stress and more vacation and downtime. Yes 17 years is a big age gap but it's not like Amal is going to wind up changing George's diapers when he's infirm -- they are rich AF and will be able to afford in-home care.

Still telling she wasn’t able to be with an age appropriate guy who is rich wealthy and famous. She had to go for granddad. I would be seriously envious if it was the former but in this case good luck to her.

The Clooney were useful tools used in politicking. Now they have shown their hand at betrayal watch them be sidelined in the future.

I have her coloring- the very very dark hair becomes harsh with age and you have to add highlights or let it grey.

I'm her age with similar coloring. Only in the last year has my hair greyed enough that I felt the need to do something about it. Instead of permanent color, my stylist recommended a demi-permanent wash in a slightly lighter color. It looks like highlights, but it's just covering my greys. I think that's a common approach in our 40s for those of us with darker hair and skin color.

? They seem like nice people, actually.

You're not a striver is you've actually arrived and been comfortably at the top for a long time.

You are lucky! My greys are not evenly distributed and are primarily at my temples. I look like a halloween character without regularly touching up the roots. I wouldn’t need any color at all but I think highlights really brighten up my face.

+1 she has continued to work in the sphere since marrying George and having kids. At this point it's more about using her name and connections to bring attention (and money and legal support) to cases and causes she cares about but that has real value. She didn't move to LA and just quit and sponge off him-- she uses his name and connections to advance her causes but she's still actively involved.

PP who worked with her firm: yes, this is also true. And valuable.

She used to be beautifully unique. Now it looks like she’s trying to filler and filter her way to look like every other Hollywood starlet out there. It’s so boring.
