Oct 26 2006

George Clooney is to re-team with the Coen brothers on spy caper 'Burn After Reading'.

The project, which will be the third time the three men have collaborated (following 'O Brother, Where Art Thou?' and 'Intolerable Cruelty'), is a comedy about a CIA agent who loses the disc of the book he is writing.

And while little else is known about the script, the boys have revealed that Clooney will play a killer in the film.

Before then, big George will be seen in 'The Good Shepherd', 'Ocean's Thirteen', 'Michael Clayton' and 'Leatherheads', while the Coen's 'No Country for Old Men' will hit screens sometime next year.
