Brad Pitt, Steven Soderbergh to team up for 'Moneyball'

Washington, Feb 6 (ANI): Director Steven Soderbergh is said to be in talks to team up again with his Ocean's franchise star Brad Pitt for new flick 'Moneyball'.

The movie is a sports film centring on the real-life Oakland Athletics' general manager who used a computer analysis program to draft a playoff-calibre team, reports E!Online.

Pitt had joined the project last fall, and as per Variety, Soderbergh is in talks after 'Marley and Me' auteur David Frankel parted ways with the film.

The movie is an adaptation of Michael Lewis' best-selling 'Moneyball: The Art of Winning an Unfair Game', which chronicled Oakland A's G.M. Billy Beane's successful foray into computer-assisted recruiting. (ANI)
