Not long after their Ocean's Thirteen [0] premiere, Brad Pitt and George Clooney will be collaborating again [1] — this time with the help of the Coen brothers. The gentlemen will be starring in the brothers' black comedy Burn After Reading which "centers on a CIA agent who loses the disc of the book he is writing." Other than that tidbit, the details of the screenplay are a mystery.

Perhaps we can gauge how the Coen brothers are doing these days by how their film No Country for Old Men [2] is received at the Cannes Film Festival [2] in May.

The brothers have already proven they can work well with Clooney when they made O Brother, Where Art Thou? [3] (just gonna go ahead and skip over Intolerable Cruelty [4] for now), and I for one am hoping for another killer soundtrack like the one that came from that O Brother — maybe even with Clooney himself singing again. In general the Pitt-Clooney combination is a recipe for success, so here's hoping the Coen brothers can provide the rest to make this awesome.
