George Clooney is reflecting on how he thought it was curtains for his career after he got into a heated on-set argument with a TV producer years ago.

In a new interview with W Magazine published on Tuesday, the two-time Oscar winner opened up about the spat after being asked if he ever thought about giving up acting before finding stardom on the long-running drama series ER.

“About 10 years [into my career], I got in an argument with an executive producer,” he recalled.

“I was the third or fourth banana on a TV show, and I had to leave. I thought that was the end of my career.”

The Jay Kelly star did not share the producer’s name or the name of the show where the incident took place.

“I wasn’t in a position of power, but I wasn’t going to be spoken to the way that I was,” Clooney explained. “I told him to knock it off. He yelled at me. I yelled back.”

Noting that........
