When you think of proper A-list Hollywood stars, few names would be higher up the list than George Clooney<\/a> \u2013 having made big franchise fare, intimate character dramas, and been a media mainstay for decades along the way. So, his role in Jay Kelly<\/a> \u2013 the new film from Noah Baumbach \u2013 may have hit close to home, with Clooney playing the titular character, a proper worldwide A-list movie star, reflecting on his life, his roles, and his relationship to his daughter in a moment of soul-searching. Check out the latest trailer:<\/p>\n

This one looks like Baumbach on more conventional fare after the far-outness of 2022\u2019s White Noise<\/a> \u2013 part love letter to the movies, part family drama (hey, this is a Noah Baumbach film), as Clooney\u2019s Kelly ventures to Europe in pursuit of his daughter, who he realises is about to embark on her own life adventure. As per usual, Baumbach has assembled a stellar ensemble for this one, including Adam Sandler, Laura Dern, Billy Crudup, Jim Broadbent, Eve Hewson, Emily Mortimer, Riley Keough, and many more. Oh, and yes, Greta Gerwig.<\/p>\n

Jay Kelly received positive responses from the Venice and New York film festivals earlier this year \u2013 and you can see if it lives up to the hype when it receives a limited cinema release from 14 November, before streaming on Netflix<\/a> from 5 December.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"When you think of proper A-list Hollywood stars, few names would be higher up the list than George…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":179539,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[96,2839,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-179538","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-movies","tag-entertainment","tag-movies","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/179538","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=179538"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/179538\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/179539"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=179538"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=179538"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=179538"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
