Following rumours earlier this year that they were teaming up to make a baseball flick, George Clooney and Out of Sight director Steve Soderbergh are apparently now in talks to team up again for a re-make of the 1960 gangster flick Ocean's 11. The original pic starred Frank Sinatra and his fellow Rat Packers Joey Bishop, Peter Lawford, Dean Martin and Sammy Davis, Jr. Clooney will reprise Sinatra's role in the story about a gang planning on robbing several Las Vegas casinos at the stroke of midnight on New Year's Eve. It's expected to take until next fall to pull together the appropriate stellar cast but Warner Bros. reportedly has so much confidence in Clooney and the project, they're willing to wait it out.
