George Clooney expresses frustration over Quentin Tarantino’s dismissive remarks

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: George Clooney vented his frustration over Quentin Tarantino’s recent dismissive comments about his career.

Clooney, who once starred alongside Tarantino in 'From Dusk Till Dawn,' was taken aback by the director’s remarks, which seemed to belittle his post-millennium work. 

As Clooney shared his annoyance, his longtime friend Brad Pitt couldn't help but find the situation amusing, leading to a lively discussion about their enduring bond. 

George Clooney says he's 'irritated' by Quentin Tarantino's remarks

George Clooney has expressed his irritation with Quentin Tarantino, revealing that he's a little annoyed by recent remarks from the director. The two previously collaborated as brothers in Robert Rodriguez’s 1996 thriller From Dusk Till Dawn, a film written by Tarantino.

Before this, George Clooney gained fame as Doug Ross on the medical drama ER and went on to enjoy a successful Hollywood career with major roles in films like 'O Brother,' 'Where Art Thou?' 'One Fine Day,' and 'Out of Sight.'

Despite their past collaboration and Clooney’s impressive career in front of and behind the camera, Tarantino has recently made negative comments about Clooney, 63. Clooney was displeased by this.

In a joint interview with Brad Pitt for GQ, George shared his frustration: "Quentin said some s**t about me recently, so I’m a little irritated by him. He did some interview where he was naming movie stars, and he was talking about you, and somebody else, and then this guy goes, ‘Well, what about George?’ He goes, he’s not a movie star. And then he literally said something like, ‘Name me a movie since the millennium.’ And I was like, ‘Since the millennium? That’s kind of my whole f*****g career.’"

Brad Pitt, Clooney’s longtime friend, found the situation amusing, chuckling during the interview. George continued, “So now I’m like, all right, dude, f**k off. I don’t mind giving him s**t. He gave me s**t.”

Despite his annoyance, Clooney acknowledged that actors are "really lucky" to work with "great directors," recognizing that the right director and screenplay are crucial for a successful film, a lesson he learned from working on some less successful projects.
