“Ides of March” stars play politics, or not, at TIFF
George Clooney and Ryan Gosling at TIFF
Politics may make for good films, but don’t expect the stars of “The Ides of March” to run for office any time soon.
George Clooney, who directs and stars as governor Mike Morris in the political drama, has already said he isn’t interested in a real-life political career.
As for Ryan Gosling, who plays the central role of press attache Stephen Myers in the film about the U.S. Democratic primary race, when asked at the TIFF press conference on Friday if he would ever consider throwing his hat in the political ring, his answer was a blunt “No”.
Not even a little joke.
This from the man who earlier compared Clooney’s directing style to watching the birth of a unicorn. Perhaps working on a film about the dirty side of politics has made a cynic of the Canadian actor.
