George Clooney recently tackled Quentin Tarantino, who no longer really considers the actor as a Hollywood star. Atmosphere.
Almost three decades ago, they fought vampires together in From Dusk Till Dawn. But today, George Clooney and Quentin Tarantino are brawling against each other!
Duringa recent interview with GQ to promote the action comedy Wolfs, available on Apple TV+ on September 21 and in which he plays opposite Brad Pitt, George Clooney got annoyed statements made by Quentin Tarantino against him. Why such anger? Because in 2023, QT felt that the actor had become a real has-been!
“Quentin has been talking shit about me recently, so I'm a little irritated.”declares thus George Clooney at the microphone of GQ, in comments reported by Deadline. “He did an interview in which he mentioned movie stars. He was talking about you (Brad Pittat his side during the interview; editor's note) and somebody else, and then some guy said, 'What about George?' And he said, 'He's not a movie star.'”
“I don't care if I speak badly of him, because he spoke badly of me”
“Quentin then literally said something like, 'Name me one of his films from the 2000s.'”continues Clooney (who got angry with another filmmaker in this same interview). “But what do you mean, since the 2000s? The 2000s are just my whole f***ing career! So now, OK man, fuck you! I don't care if I talked bad to him, because he talked bad about me.” Atmosphere.
Clooney And Tarantino definitely scrambled? We will allow ourselves to doubt it, Brad Pitt laughing out loud as he listened to the actor get carried away. “No, but we are really lucky to have been able to work with all these great filmmakers. The director and the script, that's what keeps us alive.”declares elsewhere Clooney in the process, proof that these angry words seemed rather to have been spoken in a joking tone!
