The filmography of American actor George Clooney[1] comprises both film and television roles. He has appeared in overall forty feature films, currently being involved in three other projects, and 14 television movies and/or TV series.[1] He is one of the highest-grossing actors of all time with over $1.56 billion total box office gross and an average of $53.9 million per film.[2] He has been involved in thirteen films that grossed over $200 million at the worldwide box office, the highest grossing of which was 2001's Ocean's Eleven.[3]
George Clooney first started out playing parts in television series such as E/R (1984), The Facts of Life (1985), Roseanne (1988), Bodies of Evidence (1992) and Sisters (1993), including a number of low budget film roles like Return to Horror High (1987), Combat Academy (1987), Return of the Killer Tomatoes (1988), Unbecoming Age (1992) or The Harvest (1993). His breakthrough came after he had been chosen to play in the popular NBC serial drama, ER. His role as doctor Doug Ross garnered critical acclaim, earning him Golden Globe and Emmy Award nominations. [4][5]
In 1996 Clooney had his first major Hollywood role in Robert Rodriguez's From Dusk Till Dawn opposite Quentin Tarantino, for which he landed a Saturn Award and a MTV Movie Award for Best Breakthrough Performance.[6] He then went to star in One Fine Day (1996), with Michelle Pfeiffer, The Peacemaker (1997) with Nicole Kidman and Joel Schumacher's Batman & Robin (1997) where he was given the title role alongside Chris O'Donnell's Robin, role which boosted his Hollywood star status. In 1998, he co-starred in Out of Sight opposite Jennifer Lopez, marking the first of his many collaborations with director Steven Soderbergh.
The new millenium saw Clooney receiving further critical acclaim in the Coen brothers' comedy film O Brother, Where Art Thou?, where his portrayal as Ulysses Everett McGill won him a Golden Globe Award, as well as Empire Award and Satellite Award nominations.[7][8][9] In 2001, he teamed up again with Soderbergh for the star-studded caper film Ocean's Eleven, alongside Matt Damon, Brad Pitt and many others. Due to its critical and commercial success, the film spawned two sequels starring Clooney, Ocean's Twelve in 2004 and Ocean's Thirteen in 2007.[10][11] Among others, his 2000s titles include Solaris (2002), Welcome To Collinwood (2002), Intolerable Cruelty (2003), Syriana (2006), for which he was rewarded with a academy award for Best Supporting Actor, The Good German (2006), Michael Clayton (2007), Burn After Reading (2008), Up in the Air (2009), for the latter earning an academy award nomination. Clooney also directed and starred in Confessions of a Dangerous Mind (2002), Good Night, and Good Luck (2005), Leatherheads (2008) and The Ides of March (2011).
In 2011, he starred in Alexander Payne's The Descendants as a husband whose wife has an accident that leaves her in a coma, earning a Golden Globe Award for Best Actor – Motion Picture Drama and an Academy Award nomination.[12][13] In 2013, he co-starred opposite Sandra Bullock in Alfonso Cuarón's science-fiction film Gravity.
His next projects include another directorial effort, The Monuments Men, both in 2013, and Brad Bird's science-fiction film Tomorrowland, scheduled to be released on December 12, 2014.[14]
