Cohen back with 'Borat' helmer for 'Dictator'

Sacha Baron Cohen will reunite with his Borat and Brüno director Larry Charles for new film The Dictator.

The Paramount comedy will track the twin stories of a goat herder and a deposed foreign dictator who gets lost in his own country, says the Los Angeles Times.

Cohen is currently shooting Martin Scorsese's 3D children's movie Hugo Cabret. The Dictator is expected to be the next project he takes on.

Charles's other directing credits include Larry David's HBO sitcom Curb Your Enthusiasm and the Bill Maher-fronted documentary Religulous.
