Don Cheadle and his "Ocean's 11, 12 and 13" co-star George Clooney were presented with a peace award Thursday during a ceremony marking the opening of an annual meeting of Nobel Peace Prize laureates in Rome.
The actors were presented with a bronze statue by Italian sculptor Oliviero Rainaldi for "their efforts in favor of pacifying the tormented region of Darfur and for helping save lives," organizers said.
Clooney and Cheadle co-founded a humanitarian organization called Not on Our Watch together with other stars including Brad Pitt and Matt Damon to focus global attention on the plight of Darfur's people. They have raised more than $9.3 million for humanitarian efforts in the region.
The laureates event, organized at Rome's city hall by a foundation headed by former Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev, also featured an appearance by The Dalai Lama.
