George Clooney to Go Up in the Air

Starring in Burn After Reading next month, George Clooney is currently negotiating his next project.

According to Variety, the handsome actor might star in Juno director Jason Reitman's adaptation of Walter Kirn's 2001 novel Up in the Air. Reitman has written the screenplay adaptation in addition to coming aboard to direct the film.

The publication says Clooney's role would be that of "an unapologetic corporate downsizer whose untethered life is consumed by collecting air miles."
