George Clooney Debuts on Broadway, Amal Absent for Children

George Clooney made his Broadway debut in the stage adaptation of 'Good Night, and Good Luck' on April 3, 2025, but his wife Amal was absent as she stayed home with their seven-year-old twins, Alexander and Ella. Clooney expressed that the family recently relocated to New York City to support his new role, and he shared that the kids are enjoying their time in the city. The play, which runs until June 8, tells the story of CBS journalist Edward R. Murrow's exposé on Senator Joseph McCarthy, featuring Clooney in the lead role, a shift from his previous role as producer in the 2005 film. He co-wrote the screenplay with Grant Heslov, and the production is directed by Tony Award winner David Cromer. Clooney emphasized the benefits of his schedule, allowing him to spend more time with his family during the day. The premiere attracted many celebrities, underscoring the significance of Clooney's return to the stage after nearly four decades.
