The shirt featured the words “Casamigos Tequila,” the brand he produces with Rande Gerber, husband of Cindy Crawford, who also joined the group for the trip.

The gang had no doubt being spending time at George’s villa in Lake Como, where he is known to spend much of his downtime.
Gravity features Sandra as medical engineer Dr. Ryan Stone who is on her first Space Shuttle mission accompanied by veteran astronaut Matt Kowalsky (George) who is commanding his final expedition.
During a spacewalk, debris from a satellite crashes into the space shuttle Explorer, leaving it mostly destroyed, and stranding them in space with limited air. Without means of communication with Earth, they must cooperate to survive.

It is the first film from Alfonso Cuarón since the critically acclaimed Children Of Men in 2006 and he co-wrote it alongside his son Jonás.
Speaking about shooting the film alongside her old pal George, who is known for his pranks, Sandra revealed: "This film was so hard that pranks had no place. There was never down time.
‘How are you going to prank someone who's hanging from a scaffold with 12 wires, rigged up all day? So we had a truce at the very get-go because that just wasn't the place to prank.’
Gravity will be released on October 4 in the US, and November 8 in the UK.
