Clooney filming in Kauai for The Descendants

After having a successful year being nominated for an Oscar for his work in Up In The Air and also starring in what I think was a real underrated film, The Men Who Stare At Goats, George Clooney is teaming up with director Alexander Payne ( Sideways, About Schmidt ) for a film titled The Descendants, also starring Judy Greer, Robert Forster, Beau Bridges and Matthew Lilliard. The film most likely will see a 2011 release date, but the rumor is that if Payne can have it edited by the end of summer, he'll try for a winter 2010 date.
