George Clooney has surprised fans with a candid admission. At 60, the actor has decided to step away from romantic roles that involve kissing other women on screen. He said the turning point was a conversation with his wife, Amal, after which he realized he no longer wanted to take part in such scenes.He considers his screen‑heartthrob era over. Clooney looks at his age clear‑eyedly and isn’t trying to compete with younger colleagues. He noted that time can’t be outsmarted, and no trick will make him look decades younger. He feels well, yet he is consciously choosing roles that are more restrained and grounded.As a touchstone, Clooney points to Paul Newman, who preserved the audience’s respect with age without clinging to an old persona. This approach, he believes, is fair both to himself and to the public.With a dose of humor, Clooney also recalls the start of his career. He recounted how a director once criticized his on‑screen kissing, which left him inwardly indignant because he thought his style was perfectly natural. Now, such scenes have simply lost relevance for him.Fans are already actively discussing the decision across entertainment news. It looks as though Clooney has set his priorities and chosen family, unconcerned that the romantic image will remain in the past. The choice reads less like self‑denial and more like a calm reset of what he wants to do on screen.
