After the success of both Ocean’s films, it’ll be no surprise to hear that George Clooney has reportedly just bought the rights to another Rat Pack flick Robin And The 7 Hoods, and already has Ocean’s co-stars Brad Pitt and Matt Damon on board.
It will be updated from the original story of a corrupt Chicago Sheriff going against a mob, with Robin (likely to be played by Clooney) and his boys caught up in the middle.
The original Robin and the 7 Hoods (1964) starred Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr, Bing Crosby, Peter Falk, and Barbara Rush.
No word yet on a director or producer. But considering Clooney’s relationship with Steven Soderbergh, isn’t it a possibility that the Oscar winning director will direct, or at the very least, produce?
