Margot Robbie Shares Details about "Ocean’s 11" Prequel

Margot Robbie has shared that the upcoming “Ocean’s 11” prequel will take place at the crown jewel of the Formula One circuit — the Monaco Grand Prix.

The film won’t center on Danny Ocean, the con-man who led a Las Vegas casino heist for the ages in “Ocean’s 11,” but instead on his crafty parents.

“Before Danny Ocean ever stepped foot in Vegas, two masterminds taught him everything he knows — his parents,” Robbie said in a sizzle reel of 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.”

Robbie and Bradley Cooper are starring in the untitled film, presumably as the mom and dad of Danny Ocean, the suave ringleader portrayed by George Clooney in Steven Soderbergh’s 2001 “Ocean’s Eleven.”

Separate from Robbie’s prequel, Clooney is reviving the original “Oceans” trilogy with another sequel, starring Julia Roberts, Matt Damon, Brad Pitt, and Don Cheadle.

They’ll be back in the heist game as a group as aging criminals.

Cooper is also directing the prequel after two filmmakers — Lee Isaac Chung and Jay Roach — departed the project. 

Meanwhile, Robbie is producing through her company LuckyChap. Carrie Solomon is working on the screenplay.

The upcoming “Ocean’s” adventure is expected to start filming this year and will debut in theaters on June 25, 2027.

Warner Bros. previewed several 2027 titles, including “A Minecraft Movie 2,” Melissa McCarthy’s Christmas comedy “Margie Claus,” and the Keanu Reeves-led sci-fi thriller “Shiver.”

Before those films are ready to release on the big screen, the studio has the likes of Tom Cruise’s “Digger,” director Denis Villeneuve’s “Dune: Part III,” DC’s “Supergirl” and Nicole Kidman and Sandra Bullock’s “Practical Magic 2.”

Warner Bros. is coming off a strong 2025, with seven consecutive movies to open above $40 million, including “Sinners,” “Weapons” and “A Minecraft Movie.”

Those films generated a combined $4.4 billion at the global box office, the first time that Warner Bros. reached that benchmark since 2019.

“That milestone reaffirms a simple but powerful truth,” the studio’s co-chair, Mike De Luca, said from the stage at CinemaCon. “When you fearlessly build an eclectic slate anchored by a diverse line of great films, audiences will wake up from their long COVID hibernation and show up.”
