Looks as if Ocean's 13 is on the way.

Brad Pitt and George Clooney are all set to build a new hotel and casino in Las Vegas, in a deal with Cindy Crawford's husband, nightclub boss Rande Gerber.

In return for a slice of the profits, Pitt and Clooney will let Gerber use them as the hotel's faces.

If you were looking for two celebs to invest in your new business venture, you could do a lot worse than signing up hunks Brad Pitt and George Clooney.

"Brad will design the hotel and be the face of it with George. After Ocean's Eleven this makes perfect sense, and the three of them are very good friends," an insider was quoted as saying. A formal announcement on the deal is due in November with work getting underway in January 2006.

Pitt is rumoured to be designing the building, and we all know that could be true because he’s currently designing a restaurant and a penthouse as part of architect Frank Gehry's controversial £250m redevelopment of the Hove seafront.

The project has apparently been in the pipeline for a while, with Brad first embarking upon talks with Rande two years ago. George came on board more recently.
