Technically they don't have quite the same name -- George Clooney's 2010 movie was called "The American," singular (and fair enough, since his character spends most of his time alone) -- and in fact they are totally unrelated.
Fair mistake, though. Not only are the names similar, to say the least, but both are espionage-themed international thrillers.
