Years after the stylish heists and clever schemes of the previous Ocean's film, the story of Danny Ocean and his crew is set to continue. Their blend of friendship, wit, and daring criminal execution made the original movies unforgettable, leaving a gap in Hollywood for that kind of smart, fun storytelling. Now, the team is coming back together, as George Clooney has revealed that Ocean's 14 is reuniting Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, and Julia Roberts. 

With the classic cast back, the new installment promises fresh twists, elevated high-stakes plans, and plenty of surprises that will keep the franchise going.

In a Variety interview published on December 30, George Clooney revealed Ocean's 14 to be in the works with the old cast but a new approach. Rather than relying on nostalgia, he said he wants to explore what it is like to pull off a heist when Danny and his team are older. Inspired by the 1970s comedy Going in Style, Clooney enlisted Julia Roberts, Matt Damon, Brad Pitt, and Don Cheadle to return as aged gang members. 

George Clooney, in his Variety conversation, added that the idea of having older crew members appeals to him because they may have lost a step but still have the smarts to succeed. While Steven Soderbergh will not direct, David Leitch, known for Deadpool 2 and Bullet Train, is in talks to helm Ocean's 14. With Clooney's revelation of Going in Style inspiring him, meanwhile, it is essential to explore what that movie was about.

The 1979 film aligns perfectly with Clooney’s idea for Ocean's 14 with elderly criminals at the heart of the storyline.

Going in Style follows three senior citizens — Joe, Al, and Willie — who are bored with their quiet lives in Queens, New York. To add excitement, Joe suggests that they rob a bank despite having no criminal experience.

They disguise themselves and successfully steal about $35,000. The heist energizes them, but the aftermath brings unexpected events, including demises.

With Ocean's 14 shaping up, the franchise looks set to explore the clever heists and camaraderie of an older, wiser crew, inspired by this movie. George Clooney, who recently released Jay Kelly alongside Adam Sandler, shows no signs of slowing down his Hollywood career, embracing ambitious projects even as he ages. With the classic cast reuniting and new creative twists in play, the upcoming installment promises to inject fresh energy and wit into the enduring Oceans saga.
