Jennifer Lawrence in Talks to Join the All Female OCEAN'S 11 Reboot

Earlier this year it was announced that Gary Ross would be developing an all-female reboot of Ocean's 11, and Sandra Bullock was already cast in the movie. Now it looks like she will be joined by Academy Award winner Jennifer Lawrence!

The Tracking Board reports that the actress is currently in talks to join the Warner Bros. film project. If the deal goes through, it would reunite Lawrence with Ross, who directed her in the first Hunger Games film. We also have some possible additional details on the story. The report says:

Apparently this new film will be a continuation of the George Clooney-led films, with Bullock playing Danny Ocean’s ex-con sister. With help from her right-hand woman (Lawrence, presumably taking the Brad Pitt slot), she’ll form a team of thieves to steal a necklace from the Met Ball in order to frame a villainous gallery owner.

I’m very open to this film as it was being developed by the late producer Jerry Weintraub, Steven Soderbergh, who directed the first two wonderful films, and Clooney. We also know that screenwriter Olivia Milch (Queen & Country, Little Women) has been working on the screenplay.

Shooting is expected to begin this fall, and I’m interested to see how this thing turns out. If cast, Lawrence will make a wonderful addition to this film.
