(Reuters) - Oscar-winning filmmakers Joel and Ethan Coen will turn their wit on the complex workings of Hollywood s studios in a comedy featuring George Clooney, Scarlett Johansson and Channing Tatum, Universal Pictures said on Wednesday.
"Hail, Caesar!," scheduled for release Feb. 5, 2016, will follow a day in the life of a studio fixer who must tackle numerous challenges, the Comcast Corp-owned studio said in a statement.
Set in the later years of Hollywood s golden age, the film will also star Josh Brolin, Ralph Fiennes, Tilda Swinton and Jonah Hill.
The Coen Brothers have previously won the best screenplay Oscar for 1996 s "Fargo" and three Oscars including best director and picture for 2007 s "No Country for Old Men."
They also co-wrote the screenplay for Angelina Jolie s upcoming directorial effort, "Unbroken," also made by Universal.
