description: "He cracked through on ER as the doctor everyone wanted, then spent two decades proving he could carry a blockbuster, disappear into ensemble work, and direct films about journalism and art theft with equal comfort. Two Oscars, four Golden Globes, and a marriage to a human rights lawyer later, he's the rare star who aged into gravitas without losing the grin."

bio: |
  George Timothy Clooney was born May 6, 1961, and his breakthrough came in 1994 as Dr. Doug Ross on NBC's ER, a role that earned him two Emmy nominations and launched him into film. He built his screen career across blockbusters like the Ocean's series and indies like Out of Sight, winning the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor in 2005 for Syriana and earning three more Oscar nominations for Michael Clayton, Up in the Air, and The Descendants. Behind the camera he directed nine features including Confessions of a Dangerous Mind and Good Night, and Good Luck, and co-produced Argo, which won Best Picture in 2012. Time named him one of the most influential people in the world every year from 2006 to 2009, and he's served as a UN Messenger of Peace since 2008. Divorced from actress Talia Balsam, he married human rights lawyer Amal Clooney in 2014; they have two children.
