- Warner Bros., which confirmed the project Tuesday at CinemaCon, said Cooper will write, direct, produce and star alongside Margot Robbie with a June 25, 2027 release date.
- Robbie revealed the prequel centers on Danny Ocean’s parents pulling off a heist at the 1962 Monaco Grand Prix, shifting the saga to a European, period setting.
- Industry reports say filming is expected to begin later this year, with Carrie Solomon writing the screenplay and Robbie producing through her LuckyChap banner.
- The project changed course last month when Lee Isaac Chung exited in what the studio called an amicable split over creative differences.
- Separately, George Clooney is developing a new sequel that aims to reunite stars from the Soderbergh trilogy, marking a parallel track to the Robbie–Cooper origin film.
