If there's one thing about me, it's that the Ocean's 11 franchise is my comfort film. 11, 12, 13, I do not discriminate. If Brad Pitt and George Clooney are planning a heist, I'll be watching it.

So imagine my surprise at the talk of a prequel to all of the heist madness? Life couldn't be better. Now, imagine my surprise that Pitt and Clooney actually may not have anything to do with it, and instead Margot Robbie and Bradley Cooper are taking the reigns? Like it or love it, that is reportedly exactly what is happening, so strap in. Here's what we know about the rumoured  Ocean's 11 prequel.

Who is involved?

Margot Robbie has been attached to the project for several years, though her co-star has changed hands a few times. Originally, it was Ryan Gosling who was rumoured to be co-lead, but now, new reports suggest Bradley Cooper is eyeing the role.

Behind the scenes, Twisters filmmaker Lee Isaac Chung is directing, taking the reigns from Jay Roach, who was originally on board to lead the prequel. Chung is joined by Carrie Solomon (best known for A Family Affair starring Nicole Kidman and Zac Efron) who is working on the screenplay.

What is it about?

So far, there are very few further details on the project, even if we were to plan a heist to get them, other than the fact that the film will be based in Europe in the 1960s. Bring back the Italian Job!

And when will it be out?

Unfortunately for someone who relies on the franchise to bolster their mental health, the Ocean's 11 prequel has not yet started production, so it's unlikely we'll have any more updates to share for a while. In the meantime, do you think a back-to-back Robbie X Cooper special is plausible?
