As the week heads to a close, one of the biggest bidding wars of the year has engulfed Hollywood.
Sony, Lionsgate, Apple, Netflix are all vying for a movie package that has
George Clooney,
Brad Pitt and
Spider-Man: Homecoming director
Jon Watts attached. Amazon, Annapurna, Universal, MGM, and Warner Bros. are also said to be in the mix.
Watts will write, direct and produce the thriller with Clooney and Pitt starring. The two A-listers will also produce via their respective production labels, Smokehouse Pictures and Plan B Entertainment.
Much of the details are being kept under wraps but it is understood to tell the tale of two lone wolf fixers assigned to the same job.
The package and bidding war has buyers hot and heavy. Clooney and Pitt, two of the most recognizable names and best friends, last starred on screen together in the
Ocean’s 11 movies where they showcased their chemistry. They were also seen in the Coen Bros. movie
Burn After Reading. And the resulting deal could see both land paydays of $20 million or higher.
