Coen brothers next film to follow a Hollywood private eye in the 1950s ift.tt/1p3snbU For their next film, the Coen brothers are tackling a project thats been on their plate for a number of years. The comedic film, called Hail Caesar, centers on a Hollywood fixer named Eddie Mannix, according to Deadline, which broke the news this week. As a private eye during the height of the studio system in Hollywood — which saw stars locked up under multi-year contracts with movie studios like MGM — fixers like the fictional Mannix served to solve problems like scandalous affairs from getting into the public spotlight. Many private eyes played fast and loose with the law to get their jobs done. Showtimes TV series Ray Donovan also covers a Hollywood fixer. George Clooneys name has long been floated alongside the project, which has been discussed for several years, but Deadline does not mention the star in its latest report. However, in an interview this past December, Ethan Coen said the film is about the movie business and life and religion and faith. Faith and the movie business. He added, Its still George [Clooney]. However, the film is still in the very early stages and has not been officially announced. Source Deadline Related Items joel coen ethan coen coen brothers george clooney hail caesar rumor movie film
