The 48-year-old bachelor arrived at the festival via water taxi with the 30-year-old actress/model in tow.

George and Elisabetta — christened “La Canalis,” or “Eli” by local media — have been dating since June, and are already being dubbed the new Brad & Angelina.

Clooney is at the festival to support his new thriller, The Men Who Stare At Goats, featuring Jeff Bridges, Ewan McGregor, and Kevin Spacey. The film opens in theaters Nov. 9.
