Here's the Hollywood Reporter article that's the source of the quotation in the title. The Clooney anecdote in the same paragraph is also great.

Yeah I guess I never thought about how hard it would be to get a few dozen to play as klansmen for a movie

It would be a lot creepier if none of them were black.
