CLOONEY FOLLOWS FAMILY TREND WITH LEATHERHEADS PREMIERE

GEORGE CLOONEY will follow in the footsteps of his relatives when he attends the LEATHERHEADS premiere in Kentucky on Monday night (24Mar08). The 46-year-old will return to Maysville in his native state for the opening of his new movie at the Washington Opera Theatre - 55 years after his aunt Rosemary Clooney's own film, The Stars Are Singing, premiered in the town. His father Nick says, "He knows all about that, and he is very interested in kind of connecting the dots as far as family history. "He thinks that would be kind of cool for the family, and one hopes for the town, too."
