The "Tender Bar" director recently spoke with The Guardian and admitted to becoming selective in projects he wants to do. He candidly stated, "I was offered $35 million for one day's work for an airline commercial."

Clooney's Net Worth Reveal

Clooney In Acting

After knowing the actor's net worth, the interview held in London also talked about why he slowed down in the acting side since he got married.

TMZ has stated, the star chose to act less over the last few years, as he also wanted to spend more time with his wife and his twins, Ella and Alexander.

"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,'" he emphasized.


"So, part of it is just us making sure we live our lives."
