Bateman joins Clooney 'Up In The Air'
Sun, March 1, 2009
Variety is reporting that sardonic funny man and perneial supporting actor Jason Bateman has signed on to star alongside George Clooney in Jason Reitman's adaption of Walter Kirn novel 'Up In The Air'
George Clooney stars as a corporate downsizer who is obsessed with collecting frequent flyer miles at the expense of having a life. Bateman will play his boss.
I dig Reitman's work, I loved 'Juno' and I liked 'Thank You For Smoking' so I have high hopes for this one, I am not a huge fan of Clooney but he can pick decent projects that interest me now and then and Bateman is always good value for money.
'Up In The Air' is currently shooting for a projected release later this year.
