George Clooney Shuns Romantic Roles at 63, Embraces Broadway Debut in 'Good Night, and Good Luck'

George Clooney, at 63, has announced his departure from romantic films, stating he's no longer competing with younger leading men. His last venture into the genre was 2022's "Ticket to Paradise" with Julia Roberts. Clooney is now venturing into Broadway with "Good Night, and Good Luck," based on the 2005 film he co-wrote. He plays news reporter Edward R. Murrow, chronicling the battle against Senator Joseph McCarthy. Clooney even dyed his hair brown for the role. Previews began March 12 at the Winter Garden Theatre, and Clooney admits to being nervous about his Broadway debut, planning to seat his wife, Amal, far in the back for support.
