Surprise : George Clooney est maintenant fran\u00e7ais ! En d\u00e9cembre 2025, l’acteur am\u00e9ricain, sa femme Amal et leurs deux enfants ont obtenu la nationalit\u00e9 fran\u00e7aise. C’est une nouvelle inattendue !<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pourquoi cette d\u00e9cision ? La famille Clooney habite en France depuis 2021. Ils ont achet\u00e9 une maison \u00e0 Brignoles, un petit village du Var, en Provence. Ce n’est pas une maison de vacances : c’est leur vraie maison. Les enfants vont \u00e0 l’\u00e9cole du village. George et Amal parlent de Brignoles comme leur “chez eux”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

George Clooney aime beaucoup la Provence. Il a un vignoble et il produit du vin. Il participe \u00e0 la vie du village : il a donn\u00e9 de l’argent pour aider apr\u00e8s des inondations, il fait des vid\u00e9os pour la mairie. Pour lui, Brignoles n’est pas juste un lieu pour habiter. C’est sa communaut\u00e9.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

L’acteur apprend aussi le fran\u00e7ais. C’est difficile pour lui – il le dit souvent avec humour. Mais il continue. En janvier 2026, il a parl\u00e9 fran\u00e7ais aux Golden Globes. Pas parfait, mais sinc\u00e8re.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apr\u00e8s quatre ans en Provence, George Clooney a d\u00e9cid\u00e9 : il veut \u00eatre fran\u00e7ais officiellement. Pour lui, la France n’est plus un pays \u00e9tranger. C’est son pays maintenant !<\/p>\n\n\n\n
