00:00George Clooney says he's a little irritated with Quentin Tarantino right now.
00:04The veteran actor is taking issue with the famed director's apparent comments about his celebrity status.
00:10In a new GQ interview with Clooney and his upcoming Wolves co-star Brad Pitt,
00:14the subject of Tarantino came up.
00:16Clooney said,
00:17Quentin said some,
00:18about me recently, so I'm a little irritated by him.
00:21He did some interview where he was naming movie stars,
00:23and he was talking about Pitt and somebody else,
00:26and then this interviewer goes,
00:27well, what about George?
00:28He goes, he's not a movie star,
00:31and then he literally said something like,
00:32name me a movie since the millennium.
00:34Clooney continued,
00:35and I was like, since the millennium?
00:37That's kind of my whole career.
00:39So now I'm like, all right, dude, off.
00:42I don't mind giving him, he gave me.
00:45But no, look, we're really lucky we got to work with these great directors.
00:48Director and screenplay is what keeps you alive.
00:51It wasn't immediately apparent which Tarantino interview Clooney was quoting,
00:55though the director has made headlines for calling Marvel actors,
00:57quote, not real movie stars in the past.
01:00Clooney co-starred with Tarantino in the director's 1996 crime drama horror mashup
