In Goats (which sounds totally weird judging by the name alone), Clooney plays a soldier named Lyn Cassady with really bad hair. In these pics, his new porn’stache that was grown specifically for this role doesn’t look as impressive as it did when we first saw it last month . Truth be told, I haven’t heard or seen anything that even remotely has me interested in this film … a porn’stache and sweet b-ball moves ain’t enough to get my ass to the movie theater. What else ya got, Clooney?

Woo … again, I must reiterate my new-found respect for George’s distinguished good-looks. I mean. Yeah. But, while Georgie looks hawt au natural the story changes a bit when he is in costume for his new movie role … er … the hotness kinda gets replaced with creepiness. After the jump, see what I mean …

Something tells me that George Clooney’s new role in Men Who Stare At Goats might be meant to have a certain No Country For Old Men creepiness to it … I mean, judging by the hair alone:

It’s probably not a look that is going to catch on – after spending 20 minutes in the make-up trailer on his latest film George Clooney looked at least ten years older. The actor arrived in a flat cap with his naturally greying hair lending his face a mature poise suitable to his status as a heart-throb. But after his make-under Clooney emerged sporting shoulder-length dark hair and dyed moustache. His new look is certainly different – it lent him the edge of an ageing dad attempting to hang onto his youth. But, perhaps thankfully for his fans, the long hair is temporary – it belongs to his character in new film Men who Stare at Goats, being filmed on location in Puerto Rico.

Yeah … no. Clearly the new look is meant to tone down the man’s sex appeal. I’m totes fine with him gettin’ all “into character” and what-not as long as he continues to lounge around by the pool as nekkid as possible … yes, I’d be just fine with that … wouldn’t you?

I mean … damn, he looks good. Now, I’ve never been one to lust after George Clooney or anything but I understand that he appeals to a lot of folks out there. In this light, I can see the appeal. It’s not even the ’stache that ups his hotness level for me … I think it’s the overall shirtlessness. This 47-year old man could really give some of those young bucks a run for their money. I’m deffo seeing George Clooney in a whole new light. MMM HMMM.

Burn After Reading looks like a pretty good film … I mean, the Coens are pretty amazing filmmakers and the cast is really superb (mainly, I’m most excited about Tilda Swinton and Frances McDormand). It’s been ages since we’ve seen Brad Pitt in any kind of humorous film … I hope it’s as good as it appears from the trailer.

Speaking of Mr. Pitt, he and Mr. Clooney had themselves a little fun with the personal questions that were lobbed at them left and right at a press conference:

Reporters at a Burn After Reading press conference Wednesday in Venice, Italy, didn’t seem to care too much about the new comedy. Instead, they wanted to talk babies and marriage with the film’s stars Brad Pitt and George Clooney. Is it better to win an Oscar or fall in love with a beautiful woman, one reporter asked Pitt. “Brad, don’t answer that,” Clooney quipped. When a Hong Kong TV channel reporter asked Pitt if his twins look more like him or Angelina Jolie, Clooney stepped in again. “The twins are fine,” he said, according to Reuters. Does Clooney have any plans to settle down and have kids himself, another journalist asked. “I am so surprised to hear that question. That is honestly the first time I’ve been asked that question,” he joked. “I am getting married and having children today. Brad?” Replied Pitt, “And until then I’ll be sharing mine with him. I’ll have two more by next year.” Pitt made his first public post-twin appearance with Clooney Tuesday night at a Not On Our Watch fundraiser at Venice’s Giudecca island.

Yeah, you think Brad is kidding? I wouldn’t blink an eye if the Brangelina brood did, in fact, expand next year. It’s about time the fam got back to adoptin’ orphans, right?
