Rounders

Sean Connery
, reports Daily Variety. Written by Adi Hassock and Stuart Kelban,

will play an old-fashioned CIA agent who goes on a special undercover assignment to expose illegal arms dealing. In the process, he discovers that he's been set up to take the fall in a conspiracy.
Connery
then teams up with a young counterpart to prove his innocence.
LET'S HOPE IT'S TEMPORARY: "
Cruel Intentions
" director
Roger Kumble
is in final talks to helm Columbia Pictures' romantic comedy "Screenplay Without a Title Yet." The story follows a club-hopping hipster who believes she's finally met her soulmate.
