George Clooney will link up with the Coen brothers for a third time with new movie Burn After Reading.

Production Weekly reports that the film, due to start shooting in August 2007, is 'loosely based' on Admiral Stansfield Turner's novel Burn Before Reading: Presidents, CIA Directors and Secret Intelligence. From 1977 to 1981 the author served as director of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA).

Burn After Reading will follow 2000's O Brother, Where Art Thou? and 2003's Intolerable Cruelty as collaborations between Clooney and filmmakers Joel and Ethan Coen.
