Trudie Styler: George Clooney Should Have Older Love Interests
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Casting, Celebrity Gossip, Filmmaking,
Trudie Styler thinks that George Clooney should be cast in movies alongside women his own age.
The film producer - wife of "Shape of my Heart" singer Sting - has blasted ageism in Hollywood, using the 52-year-old hunk as an example. "Look at George Clooney...I'm a huge admirer of his, but when he plays a leading man in a love story, his love interest is always 10 years his junior. Why not have an actress the same age as him? Hollywood always wants to rose tint everything, but this doesn't even reflect real life. In life, you see younger men and older women and the majority of marriages don't have such a huge age gap as we're used to seeing in films," she told The Daily Mail.
Leading ladies who have played opposite George include Jennifer Lopez, Catherine Zeta Jones and Renee Zellwegger, all of whom are now 44. However, in real life, ladies man George's last three girlfriends have been much younger than him, with him dating Stacy Keblier, 34, Elisabetta Canalis, 35, and Sarah Larsen, 32.

Love Wants McAvoy, Not Pattinson, for Cobain Role

Courtney Love wants James McAvoy - not Robert Pattinson - to play Kurt Cobain in the biopic of his musician’s life.
Cobain’s widow thinks the Scottish actor would be “great” for the role. If not McAvoy, then Ryan Gosling.
“Isn’t that so stupid, who would cast him? That’s just wrong, no offense,” Courtney said about the Pattinson rumors. “I watched the Twilight stuff very, very recently and I get it, it resonates with the teenage girl in me, I understand epic love of that nature; I write about it all the time. But isn’t that silly?”
The “Celebrity Skin” hitmaker told the Canadian Press she wants casting approval and a say on the script and hopes her producer pal Trudie Styler, Sting’s wife, will act as her “proxy” in making sure the movie is done “right.”
The rocker - who thinks it would be too painful to ever watch the film - claims she will scrap the project altogether if Moon producer Trudie declines to be involved.
