Zellweger: "George Clooney is trouble"

Renee Zellweger has spoken about some of the actors she has starred opposite, branding George Clooney "trouble".

The actress went on to describe her New In Town co-star Harry Connick Jr as "one of a kind".

"I don't know anybody like him, really," she told the Rachael Ray Show.

Russell Crowe, who played her husband in the film Cinderella Man, was branded "intense". "[He] takes his work really seriously and that's really interesting," she said.

The audience was finally warned to steer clear of her Leatherheads colleague George Clooney. "You do not want to be on the receiving end of one of his practical jokes. You just don't," she said.

"Because they can go years long, you know what I mean? Like, I'm still waiting on one, I'm sure. I've got it coming! That guy's patient."
