George Clooney is a busy man these days. Last seen in the spy comedy Burn After Reading, Clooney is currently filming The American, and he has three more films slated for release in the next two months: The Men Who Stare at Goats, Up in the Air, and The Fantastic Mr. Fox (voice).
Variety is reporting that Clooney may also be starring in director Alexander Payne's first feature in five years, The Descendants, about a wealthy man who drags his two daughters along on a quest to find his wife's lover. The script, which is based on Kaui Hart Hemmings's novel of the same name, was written by Nat Faxon and Jim Rash and is being developed by Fox Searchlight.
