"My parents are dealing with all the things you deal with with age. They’re not thrilled about it, as you can imagine," Clooney told the outlet.
"None of us are, I guess. I’m not thrilled with being 64," he added.
Moreover, to make sure he is healthy enough and active George bikes once every summer up to Mount Bisbino in Como, Italy.
"Just to make sure I'm not too old," he added.
