It has been quite some time since that conversation between Danny Ocean and Rusty Ryan has first taken place. You may know it from the crime-thriller “Ocean’s 11,” which had quite a cast with frontmen George Clooney (Ocean) and Brad Pitt (Ryan).

Also, among the cast were Matt Damon, Bernie Mac, Elliot Gould, Casey Affleck, Scott Caan, Shaobo Qin, Carl Reiner, Eddie Jemison, Don Cheadle, and Andy Garcia. Just to name a few.

The 2001 movie was actually a remake of the 1960s film starring Frank Sinatra as Danny Ocean.

But as recently announced as a part of Good Morning America’s Pop News, the fans are going to get one more. According to an exclusive from The Playlist, the franchise will take on a more femininely makeover for an all female cast reboot of “Ocean’s 11.” The 2001 film featured Julia Roberts (“Pretty Woman,” “Erin Brockovich”) as the only female star.

The idea was actually tossed around last year between the big players of the three-film "Ocean’s’ franchise: Clooney (star), Steven Soderbergh (director), and Jerry Weintraub (producer). Sadly, Weintraub passed away this past July, but the project is still in full swing The Playlist reports.

As for the cast, reportedly actress and producer, Sandra Bullock (“Miss Congeniality”, “The Heat”) will be stepping into Clooney’s shoes as she is set to play the leading lady. Clooney and Bullock recently worked on a project, “Our Brand is Crisis”, which was released October 30 with Bullock starring and Clooney producing. Originally Bullock’s role was written for Clooney, but in the end Clooney decided to work behind the scenes instead. The Hollywood stars also both starred in 2013’s Oscar winning “Gravity.”

No date as to when production will begin has yet been released; however, The Playlist confirms that a screenplay has been in the works for several months now.

It has been 55 years since the 1960 debut of “Ocean’s 11” and Dec. 7 will mark the 14 year since the 2001 debut.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
