The actor played Batman alongside Chris O’Donnell’s Robin in the movie, which is often ranked among the worst ever. “And I wouldn’t do it at all.” Adding that the movie was an important lesson, he said: “I learned that if you’re gonna be held responsible for a film, instead of just being an actor in that film, you’d better pick better films.” In the same interview, Clooney recalled the time Boris Johnson compared him to Hitler.
