The comedy movie, which already stars George Clooney and Josh Brolin, is also being produced by the Coens under their Mike Zoss Productions banner along with Working Title Films, the Hollywood Reporter reported.

The film will tell the funny tale of a fixer named Eddie Mannix, who worked for the Hollywood studios in the 1950's, where Tatum's character would be similar to that of the late star Gene Kelly-type.

Fiennes, 51 and Swinton, 53, who had recently starred together in 'The Grand Budapest Hotel' would play the roles of Laurence Lorenz, a studio director, and a Hollywood gossip columnist respectively.
