The Men Who Stare at Goats by Jon Ronson

Even the writer can’t believe his luck. The cast of a film version of British journalist Jon Ronson’s acclaimed book The Men Who Stare at Goats sounds too starry to be true. Actor George Clooney, who bought the film rights at the Cannes film festival this spring, has assembled a line-up to rival the biggest of Hollywood blockbusters. Jeff Bridges and Ewan McGregor agreed to star with Clooney in the anti-war satire over the summer, and this weekend Kevin Spacey confirmed he is free to start filming early next month.
