This just in: In addition to being super handsome and talented, George Clooney also happens to be a great cook. Could he be any more perfect?

In an interview on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, actress Kaitlyn Dever stopped by to spill all the details on her newest film Ticket to Paradise — a forthcoming romantic comedy in which a divorced couple travels to Bali to stop their daughter’s wedding — but also ended up giving us a surprising revelation that we weren’t ready for.

After talking about filming in Australia, Ellen brings up Dever’s costars: George Clooney and Julia Roberts. “There’s nice people in this business, and then there’s George and Julia,” the host said. “They’re the nicest.”

Ellen then asked Dever if she pranked Clooney on set, as he’s apparently a notorious prankster. Dever shared that not only did Clooney not prank her (nor she him), but he invited the Ticket to Paradise cast to his home and made them pizza.

“He was just the nicest person in the world,” Dever said. “We were on this beautiful boat and he fed us all this amazing food and took us back to his house and cooked us all pizza. I was literally like, ‘What am I doing? What is my life? This is crazy!'”

While we can’t all have Clooney personally making pizza for us (sigh), we can always make our own pizza at home. Check out these recipes for Pesto Pizza and Pizza Cupcakes, or you can even heat up one of the best frozen pizzas around.
