According to George Clooney, his wife, Amal, was relieved when he returned to his usual salt and pepper hair after the Broadway show ended.
George Clooney recently appeared at the 78th Annual Tony Awards, showing off his natural grey hair, after dyeing it black for his role as Edward R Murrow in the Broadway play Good Night and Good Luck. According to Clooney, his wife, Amal, 'was the happiest person" when he returned to his usual salt and pepper hair after the show ended. He even joked that his black hair looked like a bad dye job and compared it with the style of a drug dealer.
Speaking with People, the actor said, 'Oh man, my wife [Amal] was the happiest person when I came home after the play today and I'd cut all the hair off. Because, you know, I looked like a drug dealer with that bad black dye job."
George Clooney has shared before that his wife, Amal, really didn't like his black hair look. During an earlier interview with CNN, the Ocean's Eleven star admitted that even though the dark hair helped him go unnoticed in New York, something that never usually happens. Amal also thought it didn't look good on him and wasn't shy about saying the same thing.
George Clooney's play, Good Night, and Good Luck, recently made Broadway history. The Tony-nominated show, where Clooney plays journalist Edward R Murrow, had one of its final performances broadcast live on CNN on June 7. This was the first time a live Broadway performance was shown on TV at the same time it was happening on stage. The show took place at the Winter Garden Theatre and this special moment made it even more memorable.
The Broadway play Good Night, and Good Luck is based on George Clooney's 2005 film with the same title. Back then, Clooney had written, directed and acted in the movie. In the film, the role of journalist Edward R Murrow was played by David Strathairn, while Clooney stepped into the shoes of Fred W Friendly, who worked closely with Murrow as his co-producer. Now, years later, Clooney has returned to the story and this time he played Murrow on stage.
