Clooney-Coen III

The Coen brothers to work with George Clooney a third time.

After «O Brother, Where Art Thou» and «Intolerable Cruelty», the Coen brothers are scheduled to work with George Clooney a third time, on an adaptation of «Burn Upon Reading: Presidents, CIA Directors and Secret Intelligence», written by former director of the CIA, Stansfield Turner. The suave actor will play a hit man hired to eliminate a spy who is about to publish a book containing highly sensitive information. In his book, Turner studies the tumultuous relationships between several CIA directors and the presidents they served under, from Franklin Delano Roosevelt to George W. Bush.
