Margot Robbie: Hot Rumors of an 'Ocean's' Prequel with Bradley Cooper – All the Details

She's back, our favorite Australian in Hollywood: Margot Robbie is really stirring the rumor mill again. News just leaked that she'll most likely be starring alongside Bradley Cooper in a prequel to one of the most successful heist movie franchises of all time – "Ocean's Eleven." And that's far from the only thing that makes the 34-year-old so exciting.

Bradley Cooper by her side – and maybe even as director?

Industry insiders agree: Cooper isn't just set to take the male lead; he's also on the verge of stepping into the director's chair. The duo would thus be following in the footsteps of heavyweights like George Clooney and Brad Pitt – just chronologically before their adventures. It's a clever move, because Margot Robbie has proven time and again that she has a knack for smart entertainment both in front of and behind the camera. Just think of her production company, LuckyChap Entertainment, which brought us "Barbie" and "Saltburn."

If the deal goes through, it would be the first time the two stars have shared the screen. For Cooper, who's currently being celebrated for "Maestro," it would be his next directorial effort after "A Star Is Born." And for Margot Robbie? Another chance to slip into an iconic role. Details about the plot are still strictly under wraps, but insiders suspect it could revolve around the younger days of Danny Ocean's father or another key player behind the scenes.

From Babylon to Barbie: A woman for every occasion

When you say Margot Robbie, you also have to say "Babylon". Damien Chazelle's wild Hollywood epic from 2022 was certainly polarizing, but Robbie's performance as rising star Clara Bow was simply breathtaking. The film, which often finds its special edition in the media store (yes, they actually still have the DVD there!), showcases her full range between glamour and downfall. A must-see for anyone who wants to know her as more than just a blonde bombshell.

Looking back at Margot Robbie in 2019: back then, she shone twice – once as the ice-cold figure skater in "I, Tonya" (okay, that one came out in 2017, but by 2019 it had become a cult film) and, most notably, as Sharon Tate in Quentin Tarantino's "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood." This role proved she can do more than just perfect doe-eyes – she lends a vulnerable depth to every character.

What about…?

Of course, there are always quirky side notes. For instance, ml Publishing LLC released a book in 2023 about Margot Robbie that supposedly offered private insights – a typical fan item, but still a sign of her enduring popularity. And for all the collectors: the Margot Robbie 2025 Calendar is already available for pre-order. No joke, just in time for Christmas, we can hang her best moments on our walls. Whether as a gift for your best friend or for your own office – this calendar is guaranteed to be a hit.

Three of her must-see films

If you still have gaps in your Margot Robbie filmography, here's a small, fine selection:

• The Wolf of Wall Street (2013): Her breakthrough – as the seductive yet naive Naomi, she makes Leonardo DiCaprio look old.
• I, Tonya (2017): An Oscar-worthy performance as figure skating bad girl Tonya Harding. Tough, honest, with dark humor.
• Barbie (2023): The absolute blockbuster. As Barbie, she showed she could even breathe life into plastic – and with plenty of feminist messaging to boot.

And then there's the little gem "Babylon", which might have been underestimated on the big screen but unfolds its full glory on Blu-ray in your home living room.

Outlook: What does the future hold?

One thing's for sure: Margot Robbie is long since more than just a pretty face. With the "Ocean's" prequel, she could secure another slice of the Hollywood pie for herself. And for us? We're looking forward to top-notch popcorn cinema – and to hopefully seeing her back on the big screen again soon. Until then, we've got the Margot Robbie 2025 Calendar to bridge the time.
