A George Clooney produced Hollywood movie is coming to Scotland. Starring Adrien Brody (The Pianist) and Keira Knightley (Bend it like Beckham, Pirates of the Carribean), the movie is estimated to inject over US$10 million into the Scottish economy.

This announcement came hot on the heels after a fruitful 2003. Werner Herzog, one of the greatest European directors of all time, wrapped up shooting a new film in the Highlands & Islands of Scotland this year. His film, The Enigma of Loch Ness, is co-produced by Zak Penn who wrote the screenplay for X-Men.
