Elizabeth Banks & others join Sandra Bullock’s all-female Ocean’s 11 movie

Last Updated on July 31, 2021

Showbiz 411 is reporting that Helena Bonham Carter and Mindy Kaling have been added to the cast of Sandra Bullock and director Gary Ross' all-female OCEAN'S ELEVEN movie, and that Elizabeth Banks, who recently dropped out of directing PITCH PERFECT 3, will also more than likely sign on for the reboot/spinoff.

The site has also confirmed that Cate Blanchett has been cast in the film, which is being referred to internally as OCEAN'S OCHO because it will feature an eight-woman team of thieves, and apparently production will begin "early next year, maybe right after Blanchett is done on Broadway." If true, that means there are still (at least) three major roles left to fill, so which other actresses would you like to see round out the crew of robbers?

Banks has POWER RANGERS out on March 24, 2017, while Carter can be currently seen in ALICE THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS, and Kaling most recently appeared on the big screen in THE NIGHT BEFORE.
