George Clooney… mega movie star, sex symbol, political activist, but most importantly, former box office draw card.
Clooney’s fan base are aging and are no longer between their late teens and early 30s. The majority of his fans don’t want to see him in action movies or movies with other old men, they want to see him in a romantic comedy or a drama with some heart in it. But mostly, he’s no longer the cool drawcard that he once was for the younger demographic, which the action movie is targeting. Don’t get me wrong, I still adore the prankster, I just am not going to pay to see him in a movie that doesn’t tell me much.
