Clooney in 'Good Night and Good Luck'
George Clooney – who has sold Martini, Budweiser and Nescafe – has defended his choice to appear in television adverts.
The actor explained he was not above commercials as long as they were good quality.
"You want to have a product you are proud of and not embarrassed by," he commented, saying of his latest work for Nespresso: "It's really classy."
"You don't want to do ones that aren't classy," continued the star. "That's the truth. That's the secret to it."
Clooney also revealed respect for the work that goes into adverts.
"I've never directed a commercial but I think it seems to be a lot harder to do a commercial." He said a movie gives much more time to tell a story. "A commercial has to be much more about the visual style and has to happen very quickly."
