The 'Wolverine' star may have been happily married to his wife Deborra-Lee Furness for 18 years but he has admitted he would quite like to romance the 54-year-old actor if he was the opposite sex because he's "naughty" and "cheeky."

Sharing part of an interview on his Twitter account, Hugh, 46, said: "Who would I date if I was a woman? I reckon George Clooney because he's funny and he's naughty and he's kind of cheeky. And he just looks like fun."

And it seems Hugh may have got George's persona spot on as the 'Tomorrowland' star admitted he and his wife Amal, whom he married last September, have a "fun" marriage.

He said recently: "We sure are having fun. We had a beautiful anniversary, and we're having fun."

Although the 'Monuments Men' star admitted he has been learning in their first year of marriage, he didn't want to "upset" his 38-year-old human rights lawyer wife by revealing what has changed for him since getting hitched.

Asked what he's learned this year, he said previously: "That's a good question, but I can't officially tell you any of those things because that would be wrong, and she would be upset that I told anyone what I've learned."
