Dakota Fanning and Richard Robichaux have also been cast in undisclosed roles, while Matt Damon has confirmed he will cameo as Linus Caldwell, one of the main characters from Ocean’s Eleven, Twelve and Thirteen.
Accompanying Bullock as part of the main cast are Cate Blanchett, Helena Bonham Carter, Anne Hathaway, Mindy Kaling, Sarah Paulson, Rihanna and Awkwafina.
Rather than being a reboot, Ocean’s Eight will be connected to the Ocean’s trilogy from last decade by starring Sandra Bullock as Danny Ocean’s (played by George Clooney) estranged sister, who will be leading this gang of thieves.
These eight women will reportedly be trying to steal from Damian Lewis’ villainous character, who is described as being the “ex-lover” of Sandra Bullock’s character.
