American actor George Clooney was hospitalized after losing weight urgently for the filming of The Midnight Sky, directed by him. According to Qadin.Net, this was reported by The Mirror. According to the publication, four days before the start of work for the film, Clooney was hospitalized with acute abdominal pain.
Doctors diagnosed the actor with pancreatitis and he had to stay in hospital for several days. "I think I tried too hard to lose weight and maybe I didn't look after myself," said the actor.
According to the actor, his illness could be due to his diet. Clooney, 59, a cancer patient who survived a global catastrophe, lost about 13 kilograms to play the role of an astronomer. Clooney, who has directed several other films, has acknowledged that The Midnight Sky is his biggest project to date. According to the publication, the actor had to lose weight and keep a beard while filming. "I grew a long, ugly beard, and my son liked it because he hid everything inside ... But my wife and daughter (beard) were happy when it disappeared, because it was difficult to find my face in all this interaction," said Clooney.
