In the first trailer for the film, the actor is seen questioning his life choices, despite being fawned over by fans and staff.
On a trip to an Italian film festival in his honour, joined by his manager, played by Adam, he’s hailed as the ‘hero of cinema’ before being brutally asked about always playing himself.
To which he snaps back: ‘You know how difficult it is to be yourself? You try it.’
George’s character is seen continually reminding himself that he is ‘Jay Kelly’ as he and his pal embark on a whirlwind trip through Europe, as it appears the glamour of showbiz has lost its appeal.
The movie is directed by Greta’s husband and fellow Barbie scribe Noah Baumbach, who wrote the script alongside British actress Emily Mortimer.
The official synopsis reads: ‘Two middle-aged friends rediscover their youthful spirit during a chaotic weekend reunion, facing hilarious mishaps and heartfelt moments that force them to finally grow up.’
George has had an illustrious career spanning 40 years, in which he’s bagged an Academy Award for his role in Syriana in addition to a wealth of other accolades.
But during a recent interview with Variety, the Ocean’s 11 star was asked about the doubts about his range as an actor, with George furiously snapping back: ‘Do people say that I only play myself? I don’t give a sh*t.’

Echoing a quote from his character in the upcoming project, Jay Kelly, he added: Have you ever tried playing yourself? It’s hard to do.’
The Hollywood hunk continued: ‘I’ve been the beneficiary of having my career not be massively successful in lots of different directions.
‘I didn’t really get successful, in the kind of success that can be blinding, until I was 33 years old [when ER began]. I’d been working for 12 years at that point.
‘I had a real understanding of how fleeting all of it is and how little it has to do with you, quite honestly.’
Jay Kelly will be released in select theatres on November 14 before being available for streaming on Netflix on December 5.
