George Clooney has announced his upcoming Broadway debut in the musical Good Night and Good Luck

Famous film and television actor George Clooney announced his upcoming Broadway debut in the musical "Good Night and Good Luck" and admitted that he is nervous to go on stage. This was reported by Reuters on February 6.

Clooney, a two-time Oscar winner, said he hasn't given a live theater performance since 1986.

"I haven't done a play in 40 years ... so that's terrible. Yeah, George Clooney is nervous," the actor said.

It is specified that Clooney co-wrote and stars in the play "Good Night and Good Luck", adapted from his 2005 film of the same name about broadcasting and television journalism legend Edward R. Murrow and his work during the "witch hunt" of U.S. Senator Joseph McCarthy in the 1950s, when the American political and cultural establishment sought to be incriminated for sympathizing with the ideas of communism.

"The most interesting thing is that we're doing a play on a subject that's very close to our heart ... and we're telling the truth," Clooney said.

The musical "Good Night and Good Luck" will run on Broadway from March 12 through June 8.

It was previously reported on March 2, 2021, that Hollywood actors George Clooney and Julia Roberts will reunite to star in a new romantic comedy, "Ticket to Paradise." The actors have starred together in "Ocean's 11 Friends," "Ocean's 12 Friends" and "Financial Monster." In addition, Clooney produced the movie "August", in which Roberts played one of the main roles.
