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.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
