10 Most Insane Demands That Famous Actors Made For Movies

9. George Clooney Demands Hot Tub, Custom Beach Hut & Private Basketball Court - Gravity

Nobody wants to be the guy who said "no" to George Clooney, which is presumably why he got his extravagant wishes granted during the making of 2013's space-based thriller Gravity. Never mind that the Cloonmeister (why won't that name catch on?) was only in the film for, like, thirty minutes, the silver-haired star supposedly requested that a custom beach hut, hot tub and private basketball court be built next to his trailer in England - to a cost of £100,000. Yikes!

Now, look: George Clooney is one of the Hollywood's biggest stars - slap him on a movie poster, and you've pretty much hit every audience demographic in one fell swoop. He also seems to be a genuinely cool guy, down to Earth in ways that a lot of actors aren't. He's worth the cash. Still, we can't help but feel as though the basketball court is a little overkill. Wasn't the experience of making Gravity enough? Could we not have donated £100,000 to sad animals instead?
