George Clooney is headed to Hulu. Deadline reports the streaming service has picked up the Oscar winner’s new TV show Catch-22.

Based on the novel by Joseph Heller, the WWII comedy-drama ” is the story of the incomparable, artful dodger Yossarian, a bombardier for the U.S. Air Force, which keeps increasing the number of missions the men must fly to complete their service.”

Clooney will play Colonel Cathcart in Hulu’s adaptation of Catch-22, which he will also executive produce alongside Grant Heslov. Hulu has picked up six episodes of Catch-22. No premiere date has been set yet.
