George Clooney is known in Hollywood as a prankster and prankster, and it seems the apple isn’t too far from free. The actor recently talked about a time when his son completely angered him over his previous stint as Batman on the big screen.
George Clooney and his wife Amal appeared CBS matinee to talk about their life and their relationship and Clooney told the story of a conversation he had previously had with his son Alexander. It seems Alexander is, like many children, a huge Batman fan, but he’s not impressed that his father was once the Caped Crusader. According to Clooney …
Alexander’s favorite superhero is Batman. You know? I say: ‘Who is your favorite superhero?’ He says, you know, ‘Batman’. And I say, ‘You know, I was Batman. And he says, ‘Yes, but not anymore.’ If he only he knew how true it was.
Clooney’s son is only five years old, but he has certainly learned to give his father a hard time. He apparently knows that his father was Batman, which most children would find quite unbelievable, but he uses this as an excuse to make fun of his he father. Children.
While the fact that George Clooney played Batman will certainly not be something no one will forget, the actor is certainly further away from that era than ever. It has been 25 years since then batman and robin it’s out, and the movie’s biggest legacy is that it put an end to the existing franchise for a while, which isn’t exactly how he probably wanted to be remembered. However, Clooney credits the film with helping him learn to focus on better scripts.
Plus, three other actors have since played Batman in half a dozen films, so if the five-year-old is familiar with the more recent films, he knows they aren’t starring his father. And the next time we see Batman on the big screen, Michael Keaton will reprise the role. Clooney said no one asked him to play Batman again … so yeah, he’s as far from the role as anyone who has ever played him.
George Clooney often joked at his expense about the time he spent under the hood. Fans certainly didn’t accept his character’s version of him. That said, it’s hard to argue that he didn’t do a great job with the movie he was given. Fans may not have wanted a light and fun Batman movie, but Clooney did what he had to do, even though he still claims to be a terrible Batman. And honestly, there are probably plenty of five-year-olds who will love their Batman movie more than most others.
