Seriously: Georgeeeeeeeeee

Pronto podre ver al unico e inigualable "GEORGE" aclamado y alabado...


Por mientras un 'sneak-peak'... 15 cosas que uno no necesariamente sabe {7 en mi caso, ejem}...

1. In early 2006, as a reaction to Gawker.com’s privacy-invading celebrity sightings feature, Clooney publicly called for people to flood the site with fake reports; it worked.
2. Clooney’s father, Nick, was a television personality at a local Lexington, Kentucky station; he recently ran for Congress.
3. Clooney was bitten by the acting bug after working on a horse-racing film produced by Miguel and Jose Ferrer (his cousin and uncle, respectively).
4. When Clooney got the good word that “ER” was greenlighted to become a series, he was on a road trip alongside friend and colleague Grant Heslov; Heslov was then recovering from a failed engagement. The two went on to co-write Good Night, and Good Luck, and Grant currently sits as the president of Section 8 Entertainment (the production company helmed by Clooney and Steven Soderbergh).
5. While on the set of Syriana, Clooney tore his dura mater, creating a cranial spinal fluid leak. He didn’t realize the severity of his injury until repeated doctors’ visits revealed that spinal fluid was actually seeping from his nose.
6. When Clooney was given a copy of “The Spirit of Christmas”—the formative, 5-minute video that sparked “South Park”—he disseminated dubs to his Los Angeles friends. To thank him for helping to garner show interest, Matt Stone and Trey Parker cast him as the voice of “Sparky the dog.”
7. In 2005, Clooney began working with Matt Damon, Brad Pitt and Rande Gerber to create a casino resort in Las Vegas {it didn't work}
8. While in high school, Clooney was afflicted with Bell's palsy.
9. Although he did not play them, Clooney was considered for the following roles: “Robert Langdon” (The Da Vinci Code), “Mr. Fantastic” (Fantastic Four), “David Gale” (The Life of David Gale), “Carl Denham” (King Kong), “Mr. Blonde” (Reservoir Dogs), and “Jack” (Sideways).
10. Clooney owns a pot-bellied pig named Max.
11. Clooney’s first acting break came in 1984, when he was cast as a series regular on the sitcom “E/R” (1984). Nearly ten years later, Clooney shot to fame as one of the stars of the hour-long drama “ER.”
12. Clooney is the nephew of famed crooner Rosemary Clooney.
13. As a teen, Clooney’s pro-ball aspirations led him to try out for the Cincinnati Reds.
14. Clooney directed and co-wrote the critically lauded Good Night, and Good Luck. In addition, he originally intended to play the starring role of Edward R. Murrow, but later cast actor David Strathairn for the part instead.
15. As of 2006, Clooney is the only person in all of Oscar history to receive two separate nominations in the same year for writing and directing one film (Good Night, and Good Luck) and performing in another (Syriana).
