"Bradley Cooper, probably inspired by the first American stops on fellow pop diva Lady Gaga's Mayhem Ball tour, will have a Vegas residency of his own. Or possibly a Monte Carlo residency. Regardless, something to do with casinos. Cooper is in talks to star opposite Margot Robbie in her long-anticipated Ocean's Eleven prequel, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Lee Isaac Chung, who directed last summer's Twisters and the 2020 awards favorite Minari, is set to direct the prequel film."
"In 2023, it was reported that Robbie's Barbie co-star Ryan Gosling would play the lead role opposite her. Back then, word was that the film was set in Monte Carlo in 1962, right around the time of the original Rat Pack Ocean's Eleven, but no details have been revealed about this iteration of the project."
"We don't even know the title. And that raises a lot of questions, because Ocean's movie-naming conventions are a tricky thing. Ocean's Eleven, Twelve, Thirteen, and 8 are taken, in that order, mind you. An extension of the Brad Pitt and George Clooney trilogy, Ocean's Fourteen, is in development. What's a prequel to do?"
Bradley Cooper is in talks to star opposite Margot Robbie in an Ocean's Eleven prequel directed by Lee Isaac Chung. Lee Isaac Chung previously directed Twisters and Minari. Earlier iterations of the project attached Jay Roach as director and reported Ryan Gosling as a prospective co-lead. Past reports placed the story in Monte Carlo circa 1962, near the original Rat Pack era, but current project details remain unannounced. The Ocean's franchise already uses Eleven, Twelve, Thirteen and 8, with Ocean's Fourteen in development, leaving the prequel's title and timeline uncertain pending further updates.
