George Clooney's cast list comprises of actors Quentin Tarantino hates

13 Jan - Quentin Tarantino continues to get the one-two punch from Hollywood stars, as George Clooney has also given his two cents on the filmmaker's recent podcast interview and decided that he wants to work with all the actors Tarantino has insulted.

The actor-producer shared his thoughts when he accepted the Best Actor award at the AARP's Movies for Grownups Awards for "Jay Kelly." Stressing that the movie is made by people who love actors, Clooney added, "By the way, Paul Dano and Owen Wilson and Matthew Lillard, I would be honoured to work with those actors. Honoured."

"People I've known most of my life... actually, most of them are actors. I have a great affinity [for them], and I don't enjoy watching people be cruel. We are living in a time of cruelty. We don't need to be adding to it," he said.

Tarantino previously slammed Paul Dano's performance in "There Will Be Blood"

Tarantino received backlash last month after he went on a tirade about Paul Dano, saying that the actor is "the weakest fucking actor in SAG." He also stated that he will never watch movies that has either Dano, Owen Wilson or Matthew Lillard.

It is also noted that Clooney is already annoyed with Tarantino, after the latter talk about him in a 2024 interview.

"He did some interview where he was naming movie stars, and he was talking about [Brad], and somebody else, and then this guy goes, 'Well, what about George?' He goes, he's not a movie star," he said.
