George Clooney does not have a lot of missteps and even when he does, he always seems to get a pass. Actually, we are not even sure that “Leatherheads” was even that much of a misstep, even though the film was not popular, and only received mixed reviews; Clooney was as charming as always and physically looked the part of a 1920’s Football player. The only problem that as much as we love the sport in North America; we were not clamoring for a Football movie set after World War I.

We aren’t going to speak about the role in great detail (or really any detail at all), but just an observation. If you are John Krasinski and you are at the height of your run in “The Office” and an offer to star in a film with George Clooney and Renee Zellweger you had to figure that your movie career was made. It didn’t happen, as “Leatherheads” was seen by only a few people and what looked like a certain film never got launched. In hindsight, it may have been the best return prank Dwight Schrute ever pulled.
