The George Clooney-starring film “The Men Who Stare at Goats” has been acquired by Overture Films, according to a release.  The satire also stars Ewan McGregor, Kevin Spacey and Jeff Bridges and is directed by Grant Heslov.

According to the release, ‘Goats’ involves a down-on-his-luck reporter (McGregor) who gets more than he bargains for when he meets a special forces agent (Clooney) who reveals the existence of a secret, psychic military unit whose goal is to use paranormal powers to end war as we know it.

“George chooses the most unique and thought-provoking projects of any leading actor today and ‘Goats’ is no exception,” said Overture CEO Chris McGurk and COO Danny Rosett in a release.  “It is no surprise that the tremendous ensemble Grant assembled for this picture has resulted in a hilarious and intelligent film that we think will captivate audiences.”

The film is based on the 2004 book by Jon Ronson.
