Ides of March

George Clooney popped up in London today for a photo call and Q&A session for his project The Ides of March. He, along with his stars Philip Seymour Hoffman and Evan Rachel Wood, were in the UK to participate in the BFI London Film Festival, which will also show George's The Descendants this week.

George was able to hop over to England after being in Paris just last night for an Ides premiere. George brought girlfriend Stacy Keibler as a date to the red carpet event, a mere few days after she accompanied him to the NYC debut of The Descendants Sunday. George has been doing double promotional duty for both movies recently. He was nonetheless able to fit in a Cabo getaway with Stacy earlier this month so she could celebrate her 32nd birthday in his favorite place. Stacy's still able to get her own work done despite all the jet-setting. Stacy loves to exercise with AquaBells when she's on the go, and she's turned that passion into a business by teaming up with OpenSky to sell them online.

George Clooney stepped out with his The Ides of March costars in Venice today. Marisa Tomei, Evan Rachel Wood, Paul Giamatti, and Philip Seymour Hoffman posed together at the movie's premiere, which was the first of the Venice Film Festival. The film's other leading man, Ryan Gosling, apparently didn't make the trip overseas since he's busy working on The Place Beyond the Pines and promoting Drive. George's pals Rande Gerber and Cindy Crawford, in Robert Cavalli, came out to show their support, though, as did Diane Kruger, who sparkled in an Elie Saab gown. The Ides of March cast was up early for a photocall to promote the project this morning, though they stepped up their looks for this evening's event with Marisa donning a yellow number by Marios Schwab and Evan debuting a dramatic white dress. The glamorous fun is just beginning since Kate Winslet, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Selma Blair are a few of the stars expected to make appearances at the festival.

George Clooney was the lucky man in the middle between Evan Rachel Wood and Marisa Tomei this morning at a photo call for The Ides of March during the first day of the Venice Film Festival. Evan was decked out in a suit from Dolce & Gabanna while Marisa wore a dress from Preen. They were joined by leading men Paul Giamatti and Philip Seymour Hoffman as well as writer Grant Heslov, though it seems Ryan Gosling has yet to get in on the fun. George made a grand entrance into the city yesterday, arriving on boat with glamorous friends like Cindy Crawford and her husband, Rande Gerber. Cindy, Rande, and George were fresh off a fun weekend at the actor's Lake Como estate, which also hosted his movie buddies Marisa and Evan. George is currently all about his political thriller, but he just pulled the plug on another project — George dropped out of The Man From U.N.C.L.E., which is to be directed by Steven Soderbergh. We'll get another glimpse of George and his cast later today, as they're expected to be the first stars to dress up for a red carpet premiere!
