George Clooney says there’s “not enough drugs in the world” to make him play Batman again
George Clooney seemingly has no interest in returning to the role of Batman following his cameo appearance in The Flash.The actor appeared as Bruce Wayne opposite Ezra Miller in the final moments of the multiverse superhero outing, reprising the role for the first time since 1997’s widely-derided Batman & Robin from director Joel Schumacher.Speaking to Entertainment Tonight at the premiere of his new film The Boys In The Boat, Clooney explained why he returned for the cameo.“There was such a clamour for me to come back as Batman, as you know,” Clooney joked. “Why are you making that face? I saw that face.“I actually said, ‘Where are my rubber nipples?’ And they were like, ‘Can we do it without the rubber nipples?’ I was like, ‘Well, it’s not really my Batman, is it?'”Asked if he could be convinced to return to the role again, Clooney replied: “I don’t think there’s enough drugs in the world for me to go back.”Speaking to Variety in 2021, Clooney joked that Batman & Robin “destroyed” the superhero franchise because it was so bad – and that he refused to let his wife, Amal, watch it.“There are certain films I just go, ‘I want my wife to have some respect for me,'” Clooney said.Multiple actors who previously played Batman make an appearance in The Flash, including Clooney, Michael Keaton and Ben Affleck.In a four-star review of the film, NME wrote: “One of the things that makes The Flash good is how well the timey-wimey stuff works.

Samuel L. Jackson Says ‘A Time to Kill’ Cut Scenes Robbed Him of ‘Getting an Oscar’: ‘Really, Motherf—ers? You Just Took That S— From Me?’
Zack Sharf Digital News Director Samuel L. Jackson told The Times last year that he deserved to win the Oscar for best supporting actor over Martin Landau (“Ed Wood”) at the 1995 Academy Awards. In a new interview with Vulture, the actor said he was robbed of a second chance to win an Oscar just a couple years later with Joel Schumacher’s 1996 legal drama “A Time to Kill,” co-starring Matthew McConaughey and Sandra Bullock. The John Grisham adaptation starred Jackson as a man on trial in Mississippi for killing the two men who raped his daughter. “In ‘A Time to Kill,’ when I kill those guys, I kill them because my daughter needs to know that those guys are not on the planet anymore and they will never hurt her again — that I will do anything to protect her,” Jackson said. “That’s how I played that character throughout. And there were specific things we shot, things I did to make sure that she understood that, but in the editing process, they got taken out. And it looked like I killed those dudes and then planned every move to make sure that I was going to get away with it. When I saw it, I was sitting there like, ‘What the fuck?'”
