George Clooney: ‘I thought they’d do some AI version of my career’

Jay Kelly star George Clooney revealed a surprising detail he didn’t expect would be in his new film — that his past projects would be played out in front of him as part of a sizzle reel in the movie.

In the Noah Baumbach film, Clooney plays an ageing movie star on a trip through Europe with his longtime manager, portrayed by Adam Sandler.

The film also stars Laura Dern, Greta Gerwig, Billy Crudup, Stacy Keach, Riley Keough, Patrick Wilson, Jim Broadbent, Eve Hewson, Lenny Henry, and Isla Fisher.

Clooney told The Independent: “ I thought they were gonna do some AI version of my career.”
