The Coens and Clooney
Star set for another Coen brothers flick.

George Clooney is planning yet another project with filmmaking brothers Joel and Ethan Coen. According to a report on Empire Online Clooney will direct a new comedy written by the siblings called Suburbicon.

They quote Clooney as saying, "I'm going to do a comedy with Joel and Ethan in around a year.  I really like working with them and I like doing comedy with them."

"They offered me a part in Suburbicon a long time ago, and since then decided they have other projects they want to work on," he told the site. "So I called them up and said 'How about me taking a spin at it?' Because it's a really interesting, really funny, very dark comedy." No other details on the project are known.

Clooney has collaborated with the Coens on O Brother, Where Art Thou? and Intolerable Cruelty. He is also attached to Hail, Caesar!.

i'm disappointed and relieved that the coens aren't directing this.

Whats the story? Anyone know?

I was hoping for "Blood Simple II: Visser Lives," starring M. Emmett Walsh, John Goodman, Frances McDormand, Julianne Moore, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Jeff Bridges and Catherine Zeta Jones.
