The Full Story Behind That Time George Clooney 100% Pranked Tom Cruise While Pretending To Be Brad Pitt

by

As a gamer with a rich background of watching movies and following Hollywood news, let me tell you that George Clooney’s pranks are the stuff of legends! The man is a mastermind, weaving his way through the industry with wit, charm, and a knack for causing chaos.

George Clooney is well-known for his playful tricks, and he’s almost equally renowned for these mischievous acts as he is for his movies. Friends like Brad Pitt and Matt Damon have shared tales about some of Clooney’s pranks on numerous occasions, but a new story about the actor’s trick on Tom Cruise takes the cake as one of the best we’ve heard.

George Clooney often employs letter-writing as his preferred method of playing pranks. Previously, it was disclosed that he wrote letters using Bill Clinton’s personal stationery, and recent revelations have shed light on how he acquired these stationeries, as well as those from other celebrities, for his practical jokes.

How George Clooney Ended Up With Brad Pitt Stationary

On Jimmy Kimmel Live, discussing my latest film “Wolfs” alongside Brad Pitt, I shared an interesting tidbit – it was all thanks to Jimmy that I now have stationery from the desk of none other than former President Bill Clinton, as well as other illustrious figures! Jimmy had generously bestowed these gifts upon me. He explained…

I had received a letter from President Clinton, and I had that stationary duplicated. I’m not sure if that’s a crime or not. I had it duplicated at great expense, it’s a multi-color raised seal sort of situation and I gave it to you because I knew it would be in good hands and that you would have a lot of fun with it. I gave you stationery that said Brad Pitt’s name on it also.

Kimmel provided the stationery as he thought Cloosey would find humor in pranking his peers. And indeed, he did so abundantly. Clooney mentions that every actor he knows has received a letter from Bill Clinton at some point, but it was the stationery from Brad Pitt that sparked a hilarious incident with Tom Cruise.

How George Clooney Pranked Tom Cruise Over A Fake Interview With The Vampire Sequel

Instead of Bill Clinton penning letters, it was Brad Pitt’s stationery that sparked an intriguing tale. Eventually, both Pitt and Tom Cruise were left puzzled about the situation. Clooney, pretending to be Pitt, sent a letter to Cruise about a hypothetical sequel to their shared film, but with an unexpected twist. Clooney unveiled…

The Brad Pitt one was brutal. I sent it to everybody. I sent it to Don Cheadle. I sent it to Tom Cruise saying that they want to do Interview [With The Vampire] 2 but this time Brad wants to play Lestat.

A potential sequel to “Interview with the Vampire” seems like a natural choice for a movie studio, and there were whispers that such a project might materialize. One might assume they’d want Tom Cruise to reprise his role, but casting Brad Pitt as the character originally portrayed by Cruise sounds so unconventional that it raises eyebrows. However, if the script is written on Brad Pitt’s personal letterhead, one might not doubt its authenticity.

In a recent chat with Kimmel, Brad Pitt discussed this very subject, and surprisingly, Tom Cruise reached out to Pitt personally following a letter – an action that caused quite a bit of perplexity. To quote Kimmel…

This afternoon, Brad was told by Tom over the phone that it’s alright for Brad to play Lestat in the project. When asked, Brad replied ‘What are you talking about?’ as he wasn’t aware of the discussion.

In this situation, it seems as though Brad Pitt might be playfully expressing frustration towards George Clooney by mimicking a gesture of anger and a shout. It appears that instances like these usually leave no doubt about who is at fault. To give credit where it’s due, Brad Pitt has also been known to play pranks on George Clooney, so perhaps they both take turns in jest.
