George Clooney and Julia Roberts have become somewhat of a dynamic duo. Having appeared in six movies together, the two possesses a firm friendship. (Clooney and Roberts even hang out together with the former's wife, Amal.) However, before making their first joint film, Ocean’s Eleven, Roberts had to be swayed to join. Clooney recently revealed just how he managed to convince Roberts to sign on, and it involved some expert trolling on his part.
The 61-year-old actor recently attended the TCM Classic Film Festival, where he chatted alongside Ocean’s franchise director Steven Soderbergh about how they got the first film in the series made. In the process, they dropped some sweet behind-the-scenes stories. With that, the Syriana star shared the hilarious story about how he convinced Roberts to sign onto the ensemble heist film and, if you know anything about the cheeky George Clooney, it really shouldn't be all that surprising that it involve a bit of trolling. The Oscar winner revealed (via EW) that when he sent Roberts the script, he attached a $20 bill to it. He also included a note that said “I heard you get 20 a picture now.”
