After directing "The Ides of March", George Clooney has signed on to helm another political drama for his next project. The actor, who has just been honoured with Chairman's Award at the 2012 Palm Springs Film Festival Awards, is currently busy working on a big-budget political movie called "The Monuments Men".

Based on Robert M. Edsel's book "The Monuments Men: Allied Heroes, Nazi Thieves, and the Greatest Treasure Hunt in History", the film will follow a group of art experts chosen by the U.S. government to find artwork stolen by the Nazis during the World War II era. Clooney will not only direct it, but he will also star in and serve as the co-writer along with Grant Heslov.
