George and Amal Clooney appeared at the 2025 Tony Awards in their black tie best — and George showed off his natural silver here
George is nominated for his performance in 'Good Night, and Good Luck'
The role marks the movie star's Broadway debutIt's a Broadway date night!
On Sunday, June 8, George Clooney and Amal Clooney hit New York City's Radio City Musical Hall for the 2025 Tony Awards. At the ceremony, George, 64, is nominated for Best Performance by a Leading Actor in a Play for his role in Good Night, and Good Luck. The performance marks the movie star's Broadway debut,
For the big night, the couple stepped out in their black tie best — and George officially showed off his natural silver hair again after keeping it dyed dark for his Broadway show.
Amal wore a body-hugging beaded white column gown with delicate beading draped over each arm. She carried a matching white clutch and wore her long dark hair down around her shoulders.
George kept it classic in a black tux and rocked his natural silver hair with just a bit of leftover dark dye on the top.
The new stage production of Good Night, and Good Luck is an adaptation of the hit 2005 political drama of the same name about CBS news journalist Edward R. Murrow's legendary 1954 exposé on Sen. Joseph McCarthy. Clooney and Grant Heslov adapted the film for the stage, and the play is directed by Tony winner David Cromer. The film version was directed by Clooney, who co-wrote the script with Heslov.
The play opened at N.Y.C.'s Winter Garden Theatre on Thursday, April 3, and it runs through June 8.
The actor, who colored his hair a rich shade of brunette for his Broadway play Good Night, and Good Luck, has been vocal about the major style transformation.
During a Monday, June 2, appearance on Late Night with Seth Meyers, he shared one of the first things he planned to do after his final performance was fix his "bad" hair.
"It's bad. It's still dark on top, but it's gray at the bottom," Clooney said, telling Meyers, 51, that it had been about two months since he last dyed his hair. "So you get that really nice-looking grow-out of gray."
However, the Ocean's Thirteen actor promised his signature look would soon return.
"The last show is Sunday. We do a matinee, and then by the time we go to the Tonys that night, it'll be gone," Clooney continued.
The pair joked a bit more, with Meyers saying his guest looked sneaky in his baseball caps, as if he were 'trying to get away with something."
"It really looks bad," Clooney replied. "It looks like [I'm] going through some horrible midlife crisis. I'm 64 — midlife is a little stretch."
He then confessed that Amal thought his new look was "funny," but admitted she would "be glad when it's gone."

George and Amal, who tied the knot in 2014, share 7-year-old twins, Alexander and Ella. The Clooney family recently relocated to the Big Apple to support George during his time in the show.
"They love being here," the actor said while appearing on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert in February. 'I mean, come on, how do you not love this? It's New York City."
"Actually, a play is kind of a good schedule because you're working at night," he added. "You get to see the kids during the day, so it's okay."
!
During an April appearance on CBS Mornings to promote the play, George shared that he and Amal are "having a really great time in life."
Of their twins, he told host Gayle King, "Our kids are 7, about to be 8, which is a pretty great age. They're really curious and funny. Every parent thinks their kids are great — our kids are funny and make us laugh."
George then recalled how he told King, 70, in a previous interview that he and Amal had never had an argument. "I remember we were here with you once before, and I remember we said we'd never had an argument. We still haven't," he said. "We're trying to find something to fight about!"
"I feel so extraordinarily lucky to have met this incredible woman," added the actor. "I feel as if I hit the jackpot. There isn't a day that goes by where I don't think I'm the luckiest man in the world. So it's great."
The 2025 Tony Awards will air on CBS and Paramount+ on Sunday, June 8, at 8 p.m. ET.

Cynthia Erivo Belts ‘Sometimes All You Need Is a Song' to Open Tony Awards
Cynthia Erivo sang a song with the lyrics that 'sometimes all you need is a song' for a rousing opening of the 2025 Tony Awards. The Wicked star, who won a Tony herself for her role in the 2015 revival of The Color Purple, is hosting the 78th annual event live from Radio City Music Hall. As she made her way to the stage, she met up with presenter Oprah Winfrey for a pep talk; together they recreated the finger-grabbing meme that went viral, which originally featured her Wicked co-star Ariana Grande.

Early in the broadcast, there was also a fun reunion: Bill & Ted, a.k.a. Alex Winter and Keanu Reeves who are not yet starring on Broadway, but will be soon, were the first presenters of the night, which was bestowed on Best Performance of a Leading Actress winner Sarah Snook for her performance in The Picture of Dorian Gray. The actors, who starred in three Bill & Ted films (and voiced the animated TV series spinoff) including the most recent Face the Music in 2020, are next teaming up on Broadway as Estragon (Reeves) and Vladimir (Winter) in a revival of Samuel Beckett's Waiting for Godot. The Jamie Lloyd-directed production officially opens on Sept. 28 at Hudson Theatre, with preview performances beginning on Sept. 13. The limited engagement is set to run through Jan. 4, 2026.

‘Hamilton' Original Company Reunion Performance Rouses Tony Awards Crowd As Lin-Manuel Miranda Leads Intricate Medley Of Songs
In tip-top shape, as if no time has passed since its 2015 debut off-Broadway and immense success thereafter, the original company of Hamilton reunited for a rousing performance featuring an intricate medley of songs from the hit soundtrack, bringing the audience to its feet. Host and Tony winner Cynthia Erivo introduced the castmembers, stating the musical 'changed not just Broadway, but how Americans view their own history — or so I'm told,' to crowd laughter. Calling it a 'cultural force' and 'explosion of joy that spilled onto Broadway's sidewalks,' she wasted no time in ushering the grand anniversary showcase, a true masterclass in rapid-fire onstage choreography and breathwork.

Enter stage left Phillipa Soo with 'That Would Be Enough,' later completing the beloved trio also featuring Jasmine Cephas Jones and Renée Elise Goldsberry for a brief snippet of 'The Schuyler Sisters.' Then came Daveed Diggs with 'Guns and Ships' and King George III himself (Jonathan Groff, his second time on the Tonys stage tonight). The quick transitions also gave way to 'Yorktown (The World Turned Upside Down),' 'The Room Where It Happens,' 'Who Lives, Who Dies, Who Tells Your Story' and 'History Has Its Eyes on You,' ending with a short reprisal of 'My Shot.' Upon the conclusion of the reunion performance, which clocked in under five minutes, the crowd broke out into uproarious applause and a standing ovation. The reunion was announced late last month, featuring original cast members coming together to mark the 10th anniversary of the groundbreaking musical from Miranda, who led the performance alongside other original castmembers Carleigh Bettiol, Andrew Chappelle, Ariana DeBose, Alysha Deslorieux, Diggs, Goldsberry, Groff, Sydney James Harcourt, Neil Haskell, Sasha Hutchings, Christopher Jackson, Thayne Jasperson, Jones, Stephanie Klemons, Morgan Marcell, Javier Muñoz, Odom, Jr. (who will be reprising his Tony-winning role as Aaron Burr on Broadway this fall), Okieriete Onaodowan, Emmy Raver-Lampman, Jon Rua, Austin Smith, Soo, Seth Stewart, Betsy Struxness, Ephraim Sykes and Voltaire Wade-Greene. Hamilton debuted off Broadway at the Public Theater in 2015, transferring to the Great White Way's Richard Rodgers Theatre that year. At the 70th annual Tony Awards, it made history with a record-breaking 16 nominations and 11 wins including Best Musical. The show went on to receive the Grammy Award, Olivier Award, Pulitzer Prize for Drama and a special citation from the Kennedy Center Honors. Most recently, its Original Broadway Cast Recording became the first in history to be certified diamond by the Recording Industry Association of America.

Sarah Snook Doesn't Know How Cate Blanchett Would Turn 'Picture Of Dorian Gray' Into A Film, But Would Love To Help Her Try
Sarah Snook, who won a Tony Award for Best Performance By a Leading Actress in a Play for The Picture of Dorian Gray, is stumped about how it would ever be turned into a film. That's the aim of Cate Blanchett's Dirty Pictures, as Deadline was the first to report in 2024. The vision of the current stage adaptation of Oscar Wilde's novel sees her playing 26 different roles in a highly stylized production, which took London by storm before heading to Broadway. More from Deadline Deadline's Tony Awards Live Blog Cynthia Erivo's Original Song Provides Lively Opening To Tony Awards As She Earns A Standing Ovation How To Watch Sunday's Tony Awards: Red Carpet, Preshow & Cynthia Erivo-Hosted Ceremony Asked for the latest on the Blanchett-backed film adaptation during an appearance in the Tonys media room Sunday, Snook replied, 'I have as much idea as you do about where that is.' She continued, 'I don't know how this gets turned into a film. It's a particularly complex piece to do as a theater show. I mean, dramaturgically it holds up and I think Kip [Williams, the show's director] would be an incredible director for that project. If she were able to take part in the film version, Snook added, 'it would be a dream come true, but who knows?' The Succession alum was asked about the theater accomplishments of its cast and creative team since the series wrapped its HBO run in 2023. 'It's such a special group chat,' she said. 'We're all big theater nerds deep down. It's been really nice to have that revealed and shared with each other.' The ritual of being a Tony nominee, and now winner, was a new experience for Snook. 'I didn't even know Tony season even existed!' she laughed. 'You end up seeing all of the people who are nominated with you for other shows. … It's really nice because you get to meet the person who is creating art at the same time as you are.'
