George Clooney's wife is thrilled his Broadway run is over.
Speaking to Entertainment Weekly and People magazine at the 2025 Tony Awards red carpet on Sunday, June 8, the Oscar-winning actor revealed that his wife, Amal Clooney, was more than ready for his black-dyed hair to go.
“Oh man, my wife was the happiest person when I came home after the play today and I'd cut all the hair off,” said Clooney, 64. “Because, you know, I looked like a drug dealer with that bad black dye job.”
The 64-year-old actor recently wrapped his stint in Good Night, and Good Luck, the stage adaptation of his 2005 film, which ran at New York’s Winter Garden Theatre. Clooney co-wrote the script and played legendary journalist Edward R. Murrow — complete with dark hair to match the role.
But Amal, 47, wasn’t a fan of the transformation. During a June 2 appearance on Late Night with Seth Meyers, Clooney admitted she called the look “funny” and confessed she’d “be glad when it’s gone.”
He added, “It looks like [I’m] going through some horrible midlife crisis. I’m 64 — midlife is a little stretch.”
The show made history before closing, airing its penultimate performance live on CNN — a first for Broadway. Clooney and his team took their final bow on June 9, hours before appearing at the Tony Awards.
Clooney was nominated for Best Actor in a Play for his role, but he lost to Cole Escola.
