May 31 2007Myeah, See? Clooney and Soderbergh Make Football Movie
Shooting has just wrapped on Leathernecks, a 1920s football movie directed by George Clooney and written by Clooney and Steven Soderbergh. The plot, according to co-star Jonathan Pryce:
George plays for a ragtag, over-the-hill football team. They attract John Krasinski, star college football player to come and play. I’m [his] sleazy agent and manager,” Pryce divulged. “[There’s a] bit of a scandal involved. Renee Zellweger, ace reporter, is dispatched to expose [it].”
My only hope on this one is that everyone talks like they're in a 20s gangster movie, or the Hudsucker Proxy.
"Lookey heah, see? I though I toldja to button hook. Now hand me the pigskin, and make it snappy, see?"
