George Clooney denies claims he and Brad Pitt were paid $35million for their movie Wolfs: 'It's bad if that's what people think'


George Clooney is pushing back against a recent report that he and Wolfs co-star Brad Pitt were paid a whopping salary for the film, which premiered at the Venice Film Festival on Sunday.

Last week, The New York Times claimed that the Ocean’s 11 stars each received over $35 million for their roles in Jon Watt's action comedy (Pitt and Clooney pictured in Wolfs) Clooney clarified that after a theatrical deal for the film fell through, resulting in a limited release in 'a couple of hundred theaters,' both he and Pitt returned portions of their salaries. Wolfs, the $200million Apple TV+ film that is set to debut in theaters on September 20, follows the two Ocean's Eleven co-stars as they are forced to begrudgingly work together to 'fix' a problem that arises when a tough-on-crime DA wakes up with a dead 20-something with whom she was having a one-night stand.
