George Clooney is opening up about the silver lining of his Broadway project coming to a close.
The actor, 64, debuted his naturally silver hair at the 78th Annual Tony Awards on Sunday after previously dyeing them black for his performance in Broadway’s Good Night, and Good Luck.
On the Tonys red carpet, Clooney also shared his wife Amal’s candid reaction to his good old silver locks.
“Oh man, my wife was the happiest person when I came home after the play today and I’d cut all the hair off,” Clooney told Entertainment Weekly and People Magazine.
The Oscar-winning actor continued, “Because, you know, I looked like a drug dealer with that bad black dye job.”
His Broadway debut at New York City’s Winter Garden Theatre premiered on March 12. Ever since, the actor-writer’s wife, 47, had found Clooney’s darker hair “funny.”
“It looks like [I’m] going through some horrible midlife crisis. I’m 64 — midlife is a little stretch.” Clooney said during a June 2 appearance on Late Night with Seth Meyers after admitting that his wife Amal would “be glad when it’s gone.”
