George Clooney decides to step away from Hollywood for THIS reason

George Clooney has recently decided to step away from Hollywood.

The Ocean’s Eleven actor, who shares twins with wife Amal Clooney, wants to slow down in life and focuses on his family life.

“I am not in that mass rush to succeed anymore,” says the 64-year-old in a latest interview.

George shared, “I've had my career in many ways, and things were winding down in a way, so I get to be home with my kids a lot and it's fun.”

“I'm still young enough that I can run around with them,” mentions the Wolfs actor.

George opens up that he learned one lesson from new movie, Jay Kelly, which he thinks is precious.

“Almost every industry has these conversations, which is, 'I wish I hadn't missed this thing that my kids were doing when I was working,’” reflects the Batman & Robin actor.

George stated, “It is coming to terms with the sacrifices you make to succeed in any business.”

A source close to the actor that George “has reached a stage where he doesn't feel the need to prove anything”.

“He's not chasing scripts; he's not lobbying for awards – he's done all that. These days, he's happiest at home with Amal and the twins. Work just isn't his focus anymore,” points out the source, per Radar Online.

Another insider added, “He's turned down several major offers this year simply because he couldn't be bothered with the schedule... He'd rather be in Lake Como than on a film set."
