New Ocean's 11 movie gets exciting update

Another Ocean's movie is reportedly moving forward with George Clooney and Brad Pitt.

According to Deadline, sources have said that Clooney and Pitt are set to reprise their respective roles as Danny Ocean and Rusty Ryan for another instalment of the popular heist franchise.

The publication also reports that the two actors are eyeing up Edward Berger (All Quiet on the Western Front) to take over directing duties, though nothing has been officially confirmed.

The original Ocean's trilogy - which were all directed by Steven Soderbergh - began with Ocean's Eleven in 2001, followed by Ocean's Twelve in 2004 and Ocean's Thirteen in 2007.

A spin-off film titled Ocean's 8 was released in 2018, featuring an all-star cast including Sandra Bullock, Cate Blanchett, Helena Bonham Carter, Anne Hathaway and Rihanna.

Last year, Clooney said that there was "a really good script" for another Ocean's film, though it wouldn't be called Ocean's Fourteen.

"Well… I don't want to call it that… I mean, the idea is kind of like Going in Style,'" he said, referring to the 1979 heist comedy directed by Martin Brest.

An Ocean's Eleven prequel film is also in works, set to star Barbie actors Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling as Danny Ocean's parents.

However, Robbie, who is also producing the movie, revealed earlier this year that it wouldn't begin filming any time soon.

"Well, that's still in development. Word got out about that. We didn't release anything because it's way too soon, to be honest," she said in January.

"Whether it winds up being the next thing, I don't know. I don't think so. It's a pretty big project to put together, and there are certain logistical things that we have to time it around."
