Jennifer Aniston será a protagonista do filme "Goree Girls", que conta a história verídica de uma presidiária que, nos anos 40, formou com outras condenadas da prisão do Texas uma banda de música country. Segundo a Variety a produção, terá a assinatura de Michael Sucsy, realizador da produção da HBO "Grey Gardens", com Drew Barrymore e Jessica Lange. As filmagens estão previstas para Janeiro do próximo ano; e a idéia de realizar o filme surgiu de um artigo publicado há seis anos na revista Texas 'Monthly', intitulado "O, Sister, Where Art Thou?", uma sátira ao filme dos irmãos Coen, "O, Brother, Where Are You?". O filme será produzido pelos estúdios Dreamworks e pela Overnight Prods.
