Sandra Ballock to topline all-female “Ocean’s Eleven” movie

PanARMENIAN.Net - A new "Ocean's Eleven" film is in the works, AceShowbiz reports citing The Playlist. Sandra Bullock is reported to take a lead role in the movie, which is said to feature an all-female cast, with Gary Ross directing.

It was late producer Jerry Weintraub, "Ocean's Eleven" trilogy director Steven Soderbergh and the franchise's main star George Clooney who initiated the project. When the legendary Weintraub passed away, many worried about the status of the project. Fortunately, sources say that the movie is still definitely in the works.

Olivia Milch has been working on the screenplay for months, but as of now, plot details are still scarce. It is also unclear whether the movie will be a remake, sequel, prequel or spinoff. The all-female "Ocean's" movie is expected to be Ross' next project after he wraps "Free State of Jones" starring Matthew McConaughey.

Bullock is starring in "Our Brand Is Crisis", playing a character originally written for Clooney. She also lent her voice for Scarlett Overkill in this year's animated comedy "Minions". Before that, she was seen in "Gravity" with Clooney.
