George Clooney hits out at 'miserable f**k' Hollywood director who that 'made his life hell' while filming

George Clooney hits out at 'miserable f**k' Hollywood director who that 'made his life hell' while filming

It's fair to say George Clooney doesn't look back on the 90s film very fondly

Now, let’s be honest, we’ve all worked with someone during our lives that’s just been an absolute nightmare.

Whether it was your devil-like manager at your teenage weekend job or that p***k who would always take loud phone calls in the kitchen of your old office, it can be an absolute pain.

And it seems it’s the same in Hollywood too as George Clooney as hit out at a ‘miserable f**k’ director.

The Ocean’s Eleven star has appeared in a s**tload of films but there’s one in particular where he reckons the director made both his and the crew’s ‘life hell’.

Clooney recently did the joint cover story for GQ along with his pal Brad Pitt and looked back on his time working on 1999’s Three Kings.

Also starring Mark Wahlberg and Ice Cube, the film set in the aftermath of the Persian Gulf War was directed and co-wrote by David O. Russell.

He’s also responsible for the likes of Silver Linings Playbook, American Hustle and The Fighter.

During the interview, Clooney said getting older has made him prioritise the roles he takes on differently as he now only wants to work with ‘people who like what they do’.

“The older you get, time allotment is very different,” the 63-year-old said.

“Five months out of your life is a lot. And so it’s not just like, ‘Oh, I’m going to go do a really good film, like Three Kings, and I’m going to have a miserable f**k like David O. Russell making my life hell. Making every person in the crew’s life hell.’

“It’s not worth it. Not at this point in my life. Just to have a good product.”

Clooney’s feud with Russell isn’t exactly a revelation as it’s been public knowledge for quite some time.

Back in 2000, the actor told Playboy how the director would allegedly scream at people ‘all day, from day one’. The Gravity actor added that making Three Kings was ‘truly, without exception, the worst experience of [his] life’.

During the interview, Clooney claimed Russell even got physical with one of the film’s extras over a stunt but this was later denied by the director in 2004.

The star also said he ended up writing a letter to the director, telling him he needed to calm down for the film’s sake.

Well, it’s not all smiles in Hollywood it seems.
