Paul GiamattiJulia RobertsClive OwenTom Wilkinson

Universal has a new picture being developed on the heels of the unexpected box office success of Michael Clayton. After receiving what some called surprising Oscar buzz, director Tony Gilroy has wasted no time in setting forth to make his next film, a curious script written by Gilroy entitled Duplicity. Gilroy had already landed the talents of Julia Roberts and Tom Wilkinson, with whom he worked on Michael Clayton, then adding Clive Owen  [Yeah!]  and now another personal favorite of mine has been enlisted … Paul Giamatti!

[Giamatti will play an industrialist engaged in a fierce game of corporate one-upmanship against a rival titan, played by Wilkinson. Roberts and Owen play two spies-turned-corporate operatives who work on opposite sides but are having a clandestine love affair.] — Variety.com
