After Barbie, the Ocean’s 11 prequel with Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling is a priority
“They are wonderful together. To be able to bring them together in other projects, even outside of this one, would be incredible.”
Released in mid-July in cinemas, barbie has only just left the American top 10 over the weekend, which perfectly illustrates its crazy success throughout the summer. Greta Gerwig’s film bringing together Margot Robbie And Ryan Gosling will have finally earned 1.4 billion dollars on the planet, so unsurprisingly, the new reunion of the two actors is a priority for Warner Bros. and LuckyChap Entertainment, the actress’ production company.
Josey McNamara, who works alongside him in this company, explains that their future reunion in the prequel toOcean’s Eleven will be launched as soon as possible, as everyone is eager to see it again on screen.
“I can’t tell you too much, he first responds to Games Radar about this film by Jay Roach (who already directed the actress in Scandalin 2019) set in Europe in the 1960s. Simply that we try to do it well, that it is in the spirit of the saga. I can’t wait for people to see it when it’s ready.”
He also suggests that this reunion between Robbie and Gosling could be followed by other cinematographic projects, without however mentioning Barbie 2 : “They are wonderful together. To be able to bring them together in other projects, even outside of this one, would be incredible.”
Do the two actors already have another film in sight? In any case, they suggested that they would not return to Following barbieeven if Warner intends to continue the adventure, this should be done without Greta Gerwig, nor them, who had only signed for this opus.
The original film of the saga Ocean’s with Frank Sinatra, who is called The Unknown of Las Vegas, in VF, was released in 1960. From 2001 to 2007, Steven Soderbergh released his own trilogy, with heists organized by George Clooney, Brad Pitt, etc., between Las Vegas and Europe. Then in 2018, a female version was unveiled with Sandra Bullock and Cate Blanchett, who this time planned their heist in the middle of the MET gala in New York.
Barbie brought back an audience that had deserted movie theaters
This new film will therefore be designed by the director ofAustin Powersfrom a screenplay by Carrie Solomon (A Family Affair, The Good Fight…). It was announced in August 2022, when Margot and Ryan were filming in barbie. This year, its production was delayed due to strikes by writers and actors. The first shut down Hollywood from May to October, and the second started this summer, forcing the team to barbie to stop its promotion just before its release. Josey McNamara cannot announce anything concrete regarding this new Ocean’s Eleven until the union reaches an agreement with the film and streaming studios.
For the moment, he is promoting Saltburnthe new film from Emerald Fennell (the director of Promising Young Woman, and interpreter of Midge the pregnant Barbie). A film led by Barry Keoghan and Jacob Elordi which received good reviews across the Atlantic. Here is its trailer:
