The Coen brothers and George Clooney have teamed up plenty of times before, but never with Clooney behind the camera this significantly. And while he’s still a relatively new director (only 7 directing credits, compared to his 78 acting credits), if there’s material he can nail, it would be a cooperative effort between him and the Coen brothers. Maybe that was the plan all along with Suburbicon, a crime comedy set in the recently established suburbs of 1959. The trailer features everything you’d want in a project like this, with high stakes scenarios juxtaposed with the visual comedy of O Brother Where Art Thou. There’s no doubt it’ll be entertaining, but we’re most excited to see what changes Clooney will make to the formula. Expect there to be classic Coen brothers moments, but to come at them from a George Clooney angle.
