Step into the world of the “Oceans” trilogy once more with the “Oceans” prequel.
Two of Hollywood’s biggest A-listers are joining forces for what’s likely to be the industry’s next big blockbuster. The Ocean’s Eleven prequel is on the way, courtesy of Academy Award nominees Margot Robbie and Bradley Cooper.
The latest addition to the heist franchise has been in the works since 2022, but an update finally arrived at CinemaCon 2026.
Ryan Gosling, who was previously attached to star in the film, was swapped out for Cooper. The A Star Is Born actor will both act in and direct the film alongside Robbie.
It has also recently been announced that Academy Award nominees Monica Barbaro and Tony nominee Josh Gad will be joining the cast.
Directed by Cooper, the script is written by Carrie Solomon, who also penned the Netflix film A Family Affair starring Nicole Kidman and Zac Efron. Not much has been revealed about the plot, but Robbie teased that “Before Danny Ocean ever stepped foot in Vegas, two masterminds taught him everything he knows—his parents,” at the Warner Bros. 2027 slate at CinemaCon. “You’ll see them in their prime, and in our new movie, pulling off an epic heist at the 1962 Monaco Grand Prix.”
As for who’s behind the scenes: Robbie will also produce with husband Tom Ackerly through their company LuckyChap Entertainment. Michelle Graham, Gary Ross, Olivia Milch, and Josey McNamara will executive produce with Village Roadshow.
The movie is slated to start filming this year and is scheduled to be released on June 25, 2027.
