Cate Blanchett in Talks to Join All-Female Ocean’s Eleven

Cate1

According to reports from The Playlist, Academy Award winner Cate Blanchett, is in talks to join an upcoming all female Ocean’s Eleven reboot, which Gary Ross (The Hunger Games, Pleasantville) will direct and produce. She would join fellow Oscar winner Sandra Bullock who has already joined the cast. The report says that Blanchett would star as the equivalent of Brad Pitt’s Rusty to Bullock’s ringleader. The reboot is tentatively titled Ocean’s Ocho.

The all female reboot of Ocean’s Eleven is supposed to be a continuation of the George Clooney-led films, with Bullock playing Danny Ocean’s ex-con sister. With help from her right-hand woman (Blanchett), she’ll form a team of thieves to steal a necklace from the Met Ball in order to frame a villainous gallery owner.

Unfortunately Clooney is not expected to make a cameo at the time though there is talk he would appear if there were sequels.

Shooting on the reboot is expected to begin this fall. Right now there is no anticipated release date and no other news of stars attached.
