In the case of Clooney, 63, taking Bravo under his wing meant quite the exclusive invitation. “He invited me to his summer house last summer,” recalls the actor with a smile.

And they weren’t alone, he adds: “Brad Pittwas there. First time meeting the Pitt. Sexy man.”

Bravo, following upTicket to Paradisewith a lead role inFreedom(on Prime Video Nov. 1), says Clooney’s open-armed support left a lasting impression on him. “To see that level of generosity and human connection on someone that is so established gave me so much stamina for the rest of my career.”

The Oscar winner’s behavior, on and off set, “allowed me to believe that you can still be kind and you don’t have to step on people to make it in this industry,” concludes Bravo.
