He described shifting away from conflict-zone trips after becoming a father.

Overview

  • Speaking to People at the Jay Kelly premiere at AFI Fest in Los Angeles on Oct. 23, Clooney said Alexander, 8, looks exactly like he did at that age.
  • He said he once visited the Nuba Mountains, Darfur and Abyei, but he and Amal set new boundaries after having twins.
