The trio of stars is joining the cast of Joel and Ethan Coen's "Hail, Caesar!," according to The Hollywood Reporter. They'll appear alongside George Clooney and Josh Brolin in the period comedy about a studio fixer in 1950s Hollywood.
Tatum will play a dashing Gene Kelly-esque movie star, with Fiennes as a studio director. Swinton will embody an ambitious Hollywood gossip columnist.
This is Tatum and Fiennes's first movie with the filmmaking brothers, while Swinton reteams with them after "Burn After Reading." This is also a reunion with Swinton's "Michael Clayton" costar Clooney.
The Coens seem to be aiming for a more comedic film than their last, the moody folk music tale "Inside Llewyn Davis," and we hope this ends up being somewhere along the lines of the sharp and cynical "Barton Fink."
