George Clooney was a guest on “Larry King Live” after riding the press circuit for his good-doing at the border of Chad and Sudan.

While talking about the Darfur plight, King closed the interview by asking about a return to “E.R.” Clooney must have been in a playful mood as he poked fun at Jennifer Aniston. (Check around the 9:00 minute mark for this bit.)

King: One other quick thing. Are you going to be in the final presentation of “E.R. ?”
Clooney: Actually, I’m doing a remake of “Friends,” which — I didn’t want to break the news.
King: Oh, my gosh.
Clooney: I’m going be playing the Jennifer Aniston role.
King: I’m thrilled for you George.
Clooney: Thank you, it’s a career move. It’s a choice.

Back handed barb or simple joke at the expense of Clooney’s BFF, Brad Pitt? FYI -George will be back to reprise his role for the final episodes of the long lived doctor drama.
