George Clooney Declined A $35 Million Payoff That Would Have Required Only One Day Of Work

George Clooney wasn’t short on cash before selling his Casamigos tequila company for $1 billion, and he surely isn’t short on cash now, but he might have made an extra $35 million if he agreed to appear in an airline advertisement. Consider how many Harleys he could have purchased with 35 million clams. But, as he stated in a new interview with the Guardian, the Oscar winner turned it down.

“I was offered $35 million for one day’s work for an airline commercial, but I talked to [his wife] Amal about it and we decided it’s not worth it,” he said. “It was [associated with] a country that, although it’s an ally, is questionable at times, and so I thought, well, if it takes a minute’s sleep away from me, it’s not worth it.” Clooney did not agonize about his decision, as one would expect from someone with a net worth of $500 million.

Clooney also said why he isn’t in as many movies as he used to be:
“In general, there just aren’t that many great parts – and, look, I don’t have to act. My wife and I had this conversation when I turned 60 this summer. I said, ‘I can still bounce around pretty good, and we both love what we do. But we gotta make sure we don’t book ourselves silly.’ So, part of it is just us making sure we live our lives.”

Traveling the world and pooping in the litter boxes of various character actors seemed to be a happy existence. Clooney’s next film, The Tender Bar, will be released in theaters on December 17 and will be available on Amazon Prime Video on January 7, 2022.
