George Clooney expressed irritation over recent comments made by Quentin Tarantino, who questioned Clooney's status as a 'movie star' during an interview. Clooney recounted that Tarantino challenged him to name a movie he starred in since the millennium, which Clooney found dismissive of his extensive career. In a conversation with Brad Pitt for GQ, Clooney remarked, 'Since the millennium? That’s kind of my whole f***ing career,' adding, 'So now I’m like, all right, dude, f*** off.' Although the exchange was lighthearted, it reflects a deeper sentiment about the changing landscape of Hollywood and Clooney's place within it. Both actors have worked with Tarantino in the past, but it appears Clooney is unlikely to collaborate with him again anytime soon. He emphasized the importance of great directors and good scripts in making successful films, reflecting on the evolving nature of star power in the industry.
