According to Deadline, the Coen Brothers have fixed on a next project, and it is … Hail Caesar, about a studio fixer in 1950s Hollywood. The man in question is named Eddie, and not Caesar, so — just a guess here — maybe this movie has something to do with the sandal drama they were talking about a few months back? Or maybe they are the Coen Brothers and they have ideas for, like, 40 different movies written on notecards, just waiting for the mood to strike. Either, really.
