Amal Clooney Sizzles in Butter Yellow as She Arrives in Venice with George
EXCLUSIVE: Amal and George Clooney Make a Splashy Entrance at Venice Film Festival!
The glamorous couple, who tied the knot in 2014 on the picturesque canals of Venice, returned to their favorite Italian getaway for the 82nd Venice International Film Festival. And, as usual, they brought with them all the glamour and sophistication that one would expect from Hollywood's power couple.
On Tuesday, Amal Clooney, 47, turned heads as she arrived in style, hand-in-hand with her dashing husband George, 64. The stunning human rights lawyer wowed in a stunning butter yellow halter neck dress, complete with large pockets and a gold belt buckle that added just the right touch of drama to her outfit. She paired it perfectly with a pair of sleek white heels, matching white handbag, and shades that seemed to say, "I'm here to make a statement!"
Meanwhile, George looked every inch the debonair husband in his black polo shirt and cream trousers combo, which he accessorized with a simple yet elegant watch. The couple's love for each other was palpable as they strolled hand-in-hand through the picturesque streets of Venice, their smiles radiating joy and happiness.
But Amal wasn't the only fashionista in attendance – Hollywood's A-listers descended upon Venice in droves to kick off the festival. Adam Sandler, 56, was spotted making a rather more casual entrance, sporting a quirky printed shirt patterned with leopards and leaves. Who needs a tux when you can wear a bright pink Nike shirt with matching shorts? Only Adam Sandler could pull off such an outfit! And to add to the quirkiness, he was seen carrying a basketball – we wonder if it's just for show or if he actually plans on squeezing in some hoops during his downtime.
Laura Dern, 58, looked effortlessly chic as she waved to fans from her sleek white boat. The actress opted for an off-the-shoulder white shirt and black trousers combo that seemed tailor-made for the Italian heat. Pairing it with a pair of white flats, black handbag, and stylish shades, Laura looked every inch the Hollywood starlet.
But what's really got everyone buzzing is George Clooney's new Netflix comedy, Jay Kelly, which premieres on Thursday at the festival. The film, directed by Noah Baumbach and written by Baumbach and Emily Mortimer, stars George alongside Adam Sandler, Laura Dern, Billy Crudup, and a host of other A-listers.
According to sources close to the project, Jay Kelly follows the unlikely friendship between a famous actor (George) and his manager (Adam), who embark on a series of misadventures as they travel through Europe. But don't expect it to be all laughter and good times – the film is said to explore some heavy themes, including love, loss, and the human condition.
George's production company, Smokehouse Pictures, is producing the film alongside Plan B Entertainment, which is run by none other than Brad Pitt (who also stars in George's previous project, Wolfs). Could this be a sign of things to come? Will we see more collaborations between these two Hollywood heavyweights?
One thing's for sure – with Jay Kelly set to premiere on Thursday, the Clooneys are sure to bring their A-game to Venice. And who knows? Maybe they'll even surprise us with an impromptu dance performance or two! After all, as we all know, Amal is a skilled dancer (remember that time she took the stage at the 2014 Met Gala?).
