George Clooney sang the praises of his longtime friend and former ER co-star Noah Wyle at the Movies for Grownups AARP Awards on Saturday night, where both men walked away winners.
Presenting Wyle with the award for Best TV Actor for playing Dr. Michael “Robby” Robinavitch on HBO Max’s The Pitt, Clooney joked that AARP should do its own version of People’s “Sexiest Man Alive” issue and award the title to Wyle.
“I would nominate Noah Wyle as the first guy,” he told attendees gathered at the Beverly Wilshire hotel. He went on to talk fondly about his 30-year friendship with Wyle, saying, “I met Noah in 1993. He hadn’t worked a lot yet and we did this show called ER and it was this crazy hit. At one time we had 40 million people watching and I remember Noah going, ‘Is that good?’ I was like, ‘That’s good, that’ll never happen again.’”
