George Clooney's Health Update Revealed After Pulling Out Of Film Festival

George Clooney is recovering and feeling better after a weekend with a sinus infection.

The actor's health, which caused him to miss some of the events celebrating the world premiere of his new movie "Jay Kelly," is almost 100 percent.

George Clooney was forced to pull out of the event following doctors' orders after the illness caught up with him, leaving his co-stars to continue the rest of the press tour.

A representative from the actor confirmed that he is now on the mend after receiving adequate medical attention to address his sudden illness on the work trip. The actor was notably present alongside his wife at the Venice Film Festival to mark the world premiere of "Jay Kelly" last week.

Unfortunately, he could not keep up the momentum at the Telluride Film Festival in Colorado on Sunday, as he had to end his appearance in Venice after he caught a sinus infection.

The actor and his wife, Amal Clooney, exited Venice on Friday, August 29, the day after the premiere of "Jay Kelly." The adorable couple made the most of their time at the premiere, sharing a kiss and acknowledging the accolades from the viewers, as reported by PEOPLE.

He might have pulled a strong face with Amal for the premiere proper, butthe actor missed the Wednesday press conference scheduled as part of the media promo for the movie.

As reported by The Blast, his representative affirmed that a medical doctor recommended his absence in a bid to fix his health. However, the director of the movie, Noah Baumbach, and his castmates, such as Sandler, Dern, Billy Crudup, and Emily Mortimer, saved the day by stepping up at the press conference.

Baumbach assured people during the briefing that, like everyone, actors like George also fall sick, hence there was no need to panic just yet.

For the new movie, George thrilled fans as a famous movie star character in his 60s, who is forced to take stock of his life at a tribute award organized for him during an Italian film festival.

The lovebirds, who have maintained a relatively private life since getting married, took their kids with them on this Venice trip. The party of four, along with the actor's castmates for his new movie, were spotted at Lake Cuomo in Italy last Thursday.

George was reportedly very elated to be in the company of his wife and their twins as he could not stop grinning. The family kept their wardrobe very casual, with George looking dapper in a navy blue shirt, black pants, and sunglasses.

Afterwards, they headed for lunch on a boat from Villa Olendra to Villa d'Este before making a final stop at the Venice Film Festival. George and Amal touched down in Venice early last week, on Tuesday, and the attorney made a statement in her yellow bodycon dress paired with white heels.

It is no news that George has managed to break into exclusive circles in the entertainment industry and beyond, gathering very high-profile friends along the way. His friendship with former president Joe Biden was no secret, but all hell let loose in the wake of the Israel-Palestine crisis.

The Blast noted that Hunter Biden, during a recent interview, made a shocking revelation that the actor was among those who urged his dad to drop his second-term ambition.

Hunter added that he also clashed with his dad and threatened to pull out of a fundraiser, thus embarrassing the president. The issue stemmed from Joe's decision to condemn the arrest warrant issued for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Amal was reportedly one of the six experts who urged the International Criminal Court to prosecute Netanyahu for his war crimes against Palestinians in Gaza. Still, the initiative did not fly with Joe.

Well, the actor’s wife, who built a career as a human rights lawyer in the United Kingdom, now stands the risk of never entering the United States under the Donald Trump administration.

The reason is connected to her recommendations to the ICC to pursue a war crimes case against Israeli officials. In April, an international law expert noted that Amal may be sanctioned alongside the British lawyers after Trump’s executive order in February.

The president, via the executive order, reportedly targeted ICC prosecutor Karim Khan alongside the international body for abusing power with their warrants for arrest for Netanyahu and former defense chief Yoav Gallant.

In his argument, Trump stated that neither Israel nor the United States has ratified the Rome Statute, the treaty establishing the International Criminal Court (ICC).

However, Palestine ratified the statute in 2015, which provides the ICC with the legal basis to investigate potential war crimes occurring in the Palestinian territories.

Get well soon, George Clooney!
