Here's What The Coen Brothers And George Clooney's 'Suburbicon' Is All About


With the Coen Brothers' and George Clooney's Hollywood musical Hail, Caesar! set to release this weekend, details on their next collaboration are beginning to emerge. Suburbicon has been around for a while now, but information has been scarce. We know it will star Matt Damon, Julianne Moore, and possibly Josh Brolin with Clooney set to direct from the brothers' script, and now we know what it will actually be about. 

The Wrap says the film takes place in the quiet town of Suburbicon, where "the best and worst of humanity is hilariously reflected through the deeds of seemingly ordinary people." When a home invasion occurs a seemingly perfect family resorts to blackmail, revenge and betrayal.

So it sounds like they're aiming for a suburban satire, which can be a tough tone to nail, but if anyone can do it the Coens and Clooney can.
