JENNIFER ANISTON - ANISTON GOT DERAILED BY JULIA'S CLIVE OWEN CRUSH

JENNIFER ANISTON jumped at the chance to work with British hunk CLIVE OWEN on new thriller DERAILED after pal JULIA ROBERTS revealed he was a "dreamy" co-star.

Roberts was with Aniston when she received the script for the movie on the set of OCEAN'S TWELVE, and couldn't stop cooing about the actor.

Aniston recalls, "Out of the blue, Julia goes, 'Has anybody worked with Clive Owen?' She'd just finished CLOSER. And I said to myself, 'That's an omen.'

"She said, 'Well, honey, if you can, you have got to work with him because he is dreamy.'"
