Clooney leaves new project due to health reason
September 1st, 2011 - 2:21 pm ICT by IANSLondon, Sep 1 (IANS) Actor George Clooney has dropped out of Steven Soderbergh’s new movie “The Man from U.N.C.L.E” because of health concerns.
According to eonline.com, the 50-year-old is going through long standing injuries that occurred during the filming of the 2005 movie “Syriana” where he damaged his back and brain while shooting a violent torture scene.
“He said he just can’t do the action and stunt scenes. In fact, I think he’s planning on having another operation during the time he would have been filming,” said a source.
“The Man from U.N.C.L.E” is a remake of the classic 1960s TV series with the same name starring Robert Vaughn and David McCallum.
