The actor was offered the hefty salary to film an airline commerical.
"I was offered $35 million for one day’s work for an airline commercial, but I talked to [my wife] Amal [Clooney] about it and we decided it’s not worth it," he explains."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.'"
Years after their wedding, the pair welcomed twins, Alexander and Ella, in 2017. The now-4-year-old tots' names were purposefully old-fashioned, Clooney says. "We don’t, because it’s so important to Amal [to be involved]," he says."We have a nanny four days a week and the rest of the time it’s just us. And during lockdown it was just us -- for a full year! I felt like my mother in 1964, doing dishes and six loads of laundry a day."
