Barbie star Margot Robbie is set to take the lead role in the Ocean's Eleven prequel film, which will hit theaters on June 25, 2027. Robbie will star alongside Bradley Cooper in this new installment of the beloved heist series. The film will focus on Danny Ocean's parents as they attempt a daring robbery during the 1962 Monaco Grand Prix. It has also been announced that Wagner Moura, who was nominated for an Oscar for Best Actor for his performance in The Secret Agent series, will join the cast.

Robbie is used to sharing the screen with Hollywood's top male actors. She worked with Ryan Gosling in Barbie and Oscar-winning Will Smith in the film Focus. Focus presents a sleek and stylish story where con artists push the boundaries. The film received mixed reviews upon release; Collider commented that there was "no romance and no con." However, while Focus did not achieve the same level of success as Smith and Robbie's other major box office hits, it quietly succeeded by grossing $168 million worldwide against its $65 million budget.

Directed by Glenn Ficarra and John Requa, Focus stands out as an easy-to-watch film. Featuring two impressive lead actors, the film became available for streaming on Paramount+ starting July 1. Robbie's recent projects have not left a very positive impression on audiences. Appearing in films like Amsterdam, Babylon, and A Big Bold Beautiful Journey, Robbie disappointed once again in her latest project. Collaborating with Euphoria's Jacob Elordi, she tackled a new interpretation of Emily Brontë's novel Wuthering Heights, which faced criticism for being misinformed and inadequate.
