George Clooney’s New Prank on Brad Pitt “Crossed the Line”

Notorious for pranking his friends, George Clooney told BBC host Graham Norton that his next prank on Brad Pitt may be his most daring one yet.

“I’m doing one now that I can’t tell you about, but in a year you are going to hear I’ve been arrested—I’m not kidding, because I think I’ve crossed the line,” he reveals to Norton. “But I have a wife. She’s a barrister. I’ll be fine!”

When the Tomorrowland star was asked about his tradition of tricking Pitt, he replied, “I’m not sure how it started but we have done some terrible things to each other. I had some stationery made up with his name on and would then send letters to other actors from Brad Pitt.”

The 54-year-old actor also revealed how he’s in the past pranked Matt Damon and Meryl Streep.

“When we were filming The Monuments Men, Matt was trying to lose a few pounds and was only eating salad and was really serious about losing weight,” said Clooney. “I had the wardrobe girl take in his costume in by just a quarter of an inch each day. He was then just eating a grape and saying, ‘I don’t understand why I’m getting fatter.’ I did that for about three weeks.”

Meryl got tricked by the prankster as well, he explained, “I sent Meryl Streep a letter from him with a whole stack of dialect coach CDs saying that they may help her for her role in the Iron Lady. I have sent letters to lots and lots of people from Brad and I don’t tell either of them what I have done for a year or two and they are like, ‘Are you kidding me?’”

The full interview will air on TheGraham Norton Show on Friday, May 22nd on BBC One.
