In Wolfs, Brad Pitt and George Clooney were gracious about some age-related comedy.

In a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly, Jon Watts, the writer and director of the upcoming Apple TV+ action-comedy, stated that Clooney, 63, and Pitt, 60, were cool with gags about their ages in his script.

«That was one where you put it in the script and you cross your fingers and you hope that they don’t get mad,» Watts, 43, remarked.

«No, they thought it was good. It was exactly the proper quantity, and I believe they were having a great time with it.»

Wolfs follows two competitive fixers recruited for the same task, who are frequent costars and pals. As suggested by the synopsis, the two «lone wolves» must «cover up a high-profile crime.»

However, the synopsis continues, «they find their night spiraling out of control in ways that neither one of them expected» as they are «forced to work together.»Earlier this month, at the Venice Film Festival, Clooney gave some thought to his long friendship with Pitt, but not before teasing him with a few lighthearted remarks about Wolfs.
