The 59-year-old actor and director was promoting his new movie The Midnight Sky in a virtual interview on The Howard Stern Show Wednesday.
When asked about Cruz’s screams, as he reportedly shouted at the crew for standing so close to each other on the set, Clooney defended his fellow A-list actor … although he admits he would have handled the situation differently.

He didn’t exaggerate: ‘He didn’t overreact because it’s a problem. I have a friend who works with an advertisement on another TV show who just got the same thing with a not quite distant response, ‘Clooney started, even though he didn’t specify the TV show
And you know, if production drops, many people lose their jobs. People should understand this and they should be responsible. It’s not just my technique, you know, to take everyone to do the job this way. “
Clooney added, “I think it doesn’t necessarily help pointing to specific people this way and doing it … But, you know, everyone has their own style. People who took part in this photo shoot will tell us more about it,”
I understand why he did that. He is not at all wrong with that. You know, just me, I don’t know I would have done it completely personally, but I don’t know all the circumstances, so he might have gotten it 10 or 15 times before, ‘Clooney added.

Not wrong: ‘I understand why he did that. He is not at all wrong with that. You know, I just, I don’t know I would have done this completely personally, but I don’t know all the circumstances, so he might have encountered it 10 or 15 times before, ‘Clooney added.
