Ocean's Eleven prequel: the roles of Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling already revealed?

The interpreters of Barbie and Ken should play the parents of Debbie (Sandra Bullock) and Danny Ocean (George Clooney).

We have known for several months already that after barbie, Margot Robbie And Ryan Gosling will meet again for a prequel toOcean’s Eleven directed by Jay Roach (Austin Powers, Scandal). Showbizz411 reveals a first pitch, as well as the supposed roles of the two stars. Be careful, all this should be taken with a grain of salt until Warner Bros. officially confirms, but here are the details.

What is certain is that this new film in the saga after the four opuses released between 2001 and 2018 will take place in the 1960s in Europe. The American tabloid specifies that the action will mainly take place during the 1962 Monaco Grand Prix, and that the characters of Robbie and Gosling will in fact play a couple, the parents of Debbie and Danny Ocean. Either the heroes of the previous films, played by Sandra Bullock And George Clooney. They will train their children to design spectacular heists, exactly like those seen in other opuses, whether in Las Vegas or at the New York MET gala.

At first glance, the resemblance is not obvious, but once again, the connection between the characters of Margot Robbie/Ryan Gosling And Sandra Bullock/George Clooney remains to be confirmed. Jay Roach on the other hand spoke well of the first duo as a couple. It was at theAP News during summer.

“The Monaco Grand Prix will be in the background, and there will be this rich businessman who owns a yacht which is not cheap, he detailed. I would like it to be ‘old fashioned’, old. Margot presented it to me as a sort of classic, epic love story, an adventure disguised as a heist movie. It will of course be a heist film, but one where the love story plays an important part. We take inspiration from Hitchcock, especially from The Hand in the Collarbut also Chained. We would like to put on a big, big show. We would like it to be… you know? A great cinema spectacle. We have not yet validated the ideal budget for this.

Initially, we had questions about bringing Margot and Ryan together again right after barbie, we wondered if it wouldn’t be weird. But I think there are duets that we want to see again and again. They’re such a power couple, you know? In addition, it will play on the suspense: will they get together? Will they have enough trust in each other to team up? That’s romantic. This is why Les Enchaînés is one of the films that I find the most romantic. Precisely because they cannot trust each other when they should. This is the heart of what I would like to create.”

Also, I didn’t include much in the article but his vision for his Ocean’s Eleven movie with Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling, set in Monte Carlo in 1962, sounds incredible and glamorous and I hope he gets the right budget to do what he wants .
