ET's Leonard Maltin had a first class ticket to the L.A. premiere of George Clooney's latest flick 'Up in the Air.' The suave actor was quite the ladies man, escorting both his beautiful girlfriend, Elisabetta Canalis, and his doting mother to the red carpet affair.

Clooney called his double-date "part of my job." He was nervous about what his mom with think of how his character is portrayed in the movie, telling Leonard, "She's going to see me as old. She won't like that."

The hunky actor's third woman, on-screen leading lady Vera Farmiga blushed about her love scenes with Clooney. She told ET, "I think that's where [director] Jason [Reitman] misstepped. I think what the audiences really wanted to see was George. It's a real roll-up-your-sleeves kind of a job, but somebody's got to do it."

'Up in the Air' is scheduled for an on-time arrival in theaters on December 4.
