Serial prankster George Clooney convinced his Ides of March co-star Evan Rachel Wood to go for a late night dip in the pool – fully clothed – assuring her that he would join her for a swim at the Venice Film Festival.
According to Wood she was still on a high after serenading Clooney and her castmates in a karaoke bar and thought nothing of diving into the hotel pool when Clooney told her it was traditional for the cast to go for a late-night dip.
She explains: "After I sang, I was kinda on this high, this adrenaline rush... so I jumped in the pool in my gown and no one followed me... He (Clooney) said the whole cast was gonna do it.
"I ended up in there alone, but I just went, 'Oh, whatever', and I was, like, having this amazing cathartic moment, floating in this pool in this gown, and then this security guard's head just came into frame and the moment was ruined and I got in trouble and I got kicked out.
"I had to return that dress to the designer and I don't think they knew, until probably right now, that that happened."
