According to OLV, the latest movie in the Ocean’s franchise began filming in New York City.
Ocean’s Eight, which we’ve confirmed is filming under the working title Linus, will follow a team of female thieves working together to steal a necklace from the Met Ball and frame a crooked gallery owner for the crime.
The film, which is reportedly, “an extension and a continuation” of the Ocean’s trilogy, will have an all-star cast including Sandra Bullock, Sarah Paulson, Helena Bonham Carter, Anne Hathaway, Cate Blanchett, Mindy Kaling, Rihanna and Awkwafina.
Sandra Bullock’s character will tie in the original movies as she is said to be the sister of the Ocean’s character Danny Ocean who was played by George Clooney.
Steven Soderbergh and George Clooney are producing Ocean’s Eight, while Gary Ross directs. Ocean’s Eight is expected to hit theaters on June 8, 2018.
