Robbie to roll back decades in new Ocean’s Eleven reboot

-

oCeAN’S eleven is to get a vintage revival, with actress Margot robbie (left) agreeing to star in a new heist caper which will be set in the 1960s, like the original rat Pack movie.

robbie, 31, has asked her British husband Tom Ackerley to produce the film. He’s also her producer on the big-budget Barbie movie, which is currently shooting in the UK, with Margot as the iconic doll. (The new Doctor Who, Ncuti Gatwa, is playing one of Barbie’s three Kens; ryan Gosling is another.) For the as-yetuntitle­d ocean’s eleven film, Warner Bros has hired screenwrit­er Carrie Solomon, a young talent who was previously involved with the legally Blonde 3 project.

The first ocean’s eleven reboot, starring Brad Pitt and George Clooney, was a massive hit in 2001. ocean’s Twelve and Thirteen were less successful, and the all-female ocean’s eight, with Sandra Bullock and Cate Blanchett, in 2018 was met with mixed reviews.
