George Clooney has traipsed across countries, up to France, and yet, production house-ties seem to follow him around the globe. Only this time, the deal between him and Paramount does not look as friendly as one would think. Clooney’s roster, instead of locking another million-dollar deal, might have evaded it, but without any real confirmation.

To think George Clooney would be excluded from a deal only after a slight box office slump is a surprise that needs to be weighed before anything else. 

Following a stellar performance, per usual, but a slight drop in his box office reputation, with Jay Kelly, a rumour about Geroge Clooney’s contract clash with Paramount has been circulating. However, a short internet surf is quick to clear that Clooney has, in fact, refused no $150 million worth deal. No tussle about prolonged confidentiality has occurred on Clooney’s part, either. 

Moreover, there also happens to be no film where Geroge Clooney has been replaced by Mark Wahlberg, as the rumors claim. Facebook or X accounts are where such falsity may have stemmed from.

On the other hand, the element of shock comes from the fact that Clooney and Paramount have, in fact, had a beyond amicable relationship. So much so, the actor's first venture into the directorial realm was released by Paramount itself. In 2010, Clooney’s film with Paramount, Up in the Air, even bagged him an Oscar nomination for Best Actor.

While he has not left Paramount over unreasonably confidential contracts, George Clooney has remained openly defensive of actors’ integrity. 

Be it too political, too partial, or even about being over 50, George Clooney has often made his opinions clear as pond water to the onlookers. A recent example could be his, like many others’, words in support of the acclaimed actor Paul Dano. Clooney's wish to work with Dano, as he expressed at the AARP’s Movies for Grownups awards, stood staunchly against Quentin Tarantino’s thoughts on Paul Dano’s acting. 

George Clooney not only maintains his stances but also has a yet to be phased bond with Paramount. While the intricacies stay out of the limelight, there are clearly no misalignments that have ever marred the actor’s deals with Paramount; in fact, only brought both to flourish.
