Like Indy Clooney Will Look For Treasure

George Clooney will write, direct and star in the big-budget hunt for Nazi-stolen art treasure pic "The Monuments Men" says The Wrap.

Clooney and his producing pal Grant Heslov are co-writing an adaptation of author Robert M. Edsel's book about a group of hand-picked of art experts chosen by the U.S. government to retrieve artwork taken by the Nazis during World War II. 

“It’s a fun movie because it could be big entertainment. It’s a big budget, you can’t do it small -- it’s landing in Normandy" Clooney said on Saturday attending the Palm Springs Film Festival.

The pic is still in early stages so no-one else has been cast or is being considered yet for the various other roles.
