Brad Pitt and George Clooney
The 'Descendants' star – who has famously said he doesn't want kids – is up against Brad for the prestigious accolade and the pair have made a bet with each other on the outcome, according to the National Enquirer magazine.

If Brad – who raises six children, Maddox, 10, Pax, eight, Zahara, seven, Shiloh, five, and three-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne, with partner Angelina Jolie – takes home the prize for his role in 'Moneyball', George will have to take care of all the kids for the night so he and Angelina can go out.

But if George wins, Brad will work a full day as a deckhand on George's yacht in Italy's Lake Como.

However, Brad and George face competition from Gary Oldman, Jean Dujardin and Demian Bichir.

George has previously said seeing Brad and Angelina with their brood of children has put him off fatherhood for life.

He said: "Even one kid running around my villa makes me nervous, so I'm definitely not a candidate for father of the year!


"If I need to surround myself with children and feel like I have this big extended family, I can always call Brad and Angie and ask them to stay with me, just to remind me why I'm so happy without."
