In conversation with Total Film (via Games Radar), the American actor and filmmaker gave a major update about his character in the upcoming film. “Wolves follow two lone-wolf fixers (Clooney and Pitt) as they are assigned to carry out the same job,” as per The Hollywood Reporter. The actor said about his “gloomy” role:

“He’s a sad, sad guy. He’s angry. He’s getting old. He’s turning 60 in a couple of weeks. It’s all downhill for him after that.” 

He admired the movie’s director and said, “Uh… It’s a really good movie. I love this guy, Jon Watts. What a director. It’s out there,” adding, “We just did a screening of it, and the place kind of went batshit for it. So, we’re excited about it.”
