George Clooney Once Took a Shit In Richard Kind’s Cat Litter Box

The Kennedy Center Honors are some of the most prestigious accolades in the entertainment industry, reserved only for the most high-brow and respected members of the performing arts world — and also George Clooney, who once made a bowel movement in Richard Kind’s litter box.

George Clooney and Julia Roberts Reunite in Seaweed-Thin Romcom Ticket to Paradise: Review

The Pitch: David (George Clooney) and Georgia (Julia Roberts) are two hugely successful, extremely divorced people, with 19 years of bitter animus between them. In fact, the only times they even see each other are for the major milestones in the life of their daughter, Lily (Kaitlin Dever), and even then they can’t help but snipe at each other through forced smiles. But they’re forced back into each other’s orbits when Lily shacks up with a handsome seaweed farmer (model Maxime Bouttier) on her post-graduation trip to Bali, and invites them to her whirlwind wedding on the Indonesian island paradise. Recognizing that throwing her career away for idle island living and a guy she’s just met is a Bad Idea, the two plot to sabotage the wedding from the inside. Along the way, though, t...

Julia Roberts and George Clooney Book a Nightmare Destination Wedding in Trailer for Ticket to Paradise: Watch

The trailer for the upcoming Julia Roberts and George Clooney-starring romantic comedy Ticket to Paradise was revealed on June 29th, and it seems like the itinerary offers little rest or relaxation and a bit more revenge and reconciliation for its reluctant guests. Set in idyllic Bali, the movie centers around “exes who find themselves on a shared mission to stop their lovestruck daughter from making the same mistake they once made.” Though, as the trailer suggests, there might be some willingness between the two leads to reconsider the past and even rekindle their former spark as their obvious chemistry can’t help but shine through. Despite the messy beer pong games, dolphin attacks, and nonstop verbal jabs like Roberts’ sarcastic “It’s a mystery you’re still alone” or Clooney’s “Worst 19...

George Clooney’s The Midnight Sky Blandly Goes Where Plenty of Sci-Fi Has Gone Before: Review

The Pitch: It’s 2049, and the Earth is plagued by a mysterious apocalyptic event – details are scarce, but it seems as though the world is in its last gasps, and time is running out. Perhaps the only man left on Earth is Augustine Lofthouse (George Clooney), an astronomer dying of cancer who chooses to stay behind while the rest of the personnel evacuate their observatory in the Arctic Circle. As he whiles away the days and weeks waiting for the world to end, two events force him into action: the arrival of a mute girl (seven-year-old newbie Caoilinn Springall) seemingly left behind in the evacuation, and the realization that a spaceship called the Aether is on its way back to the planet. They’ve spent the last few years scoping out a new planet for humanity called K-23, and are comin...
