George Clooney Net Worth

George Clooney is an American actor, screenwriter, director, and activist. One of most sought-after actors in Hollywood, he has a net worth of $160 million. Clooney was born in Kentucky and raised there and in Ohio, and upon moving to Los Angeles won minor roles in television shows such as The Facts of Life, Roseanne, and The Golden Girls. His first major role was on the sitcom E/R in 1984—not to be confused with his star-making role on the NBC drama ER, which began ten years later. While still on ER, he appeared in a number of films, including From Dusk til Dawn, One Fine Day, and Out of Sight; he also succeeded Val Kilmer as Batman, though he appeared only in Batman & Robin.

He left the show in 1999 and had a spate of box office successes, including his most popular to date, Ocean's 11. In 2005, Clooney appeared in the film Syriana, for which he won an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor; the same year, he was also nominated both for writing and directing Good Night, and Good Luck, and became the first person in Oscar history to be nominated for directing one film and acting in another in the same year. Clooney is active in a variety of political causes, including the conflict in Darfur, Sudan, and fundraising for relief after the 2010 earthquake in Haiti. He married Talia Balsam in 1989; they divorced in 1993, and Clooney went on to live with his pet pig, Max, until the pig's death in 2006.
