White Jazz

Another film on the Smokehouse to do list supposedly opening next year. I think this dropped off their list at some point.

From movie insider

In Movie Theaters:TBA, 2012

Screenwriter: Matthew Michael Carnahan

Starring: George Clooney

Produced by: Smoke House Pictures

Synopsis: George Clooney will play a dirty LAPD vice squad lieutenant whose mastery at skirting the rules gets tested when he's set up by his crooked bosses to be the fall guy for a murder.

Additional Notes: An adaptation of the James Ellroy novel of the same name.

I hope this one happens sounds cool!

Sure sounds different for George. Never really so villianous before.

We'll see if it happens.

I'm happy to hear he's getting serious roles. I like the serious George rather than goofy (OBWAT. Stares at Goats, Burn After Reading, etc.)

I still watch Solaris on DVD (and not just for the butt shots, although that's a nice bonus), but for the acting. I would travel into space with him any time, any day - I'm there. LOL

i hope it doesn't turn out like "the American"

According to IMDB Pro, Cherry Road Films is the only credited production company and no actors are listed.

Oh... Thanks, Sisieq!

Hope he does this one, would like to see him play a bad guy.

I am sure he will be a great "bad guy"
