A remake of The War of the Roses is being held at Searchlight Pictures nearly 35 years after the original dark comedy hit theaters.

Although Greta Gerwig's "Barbie" film has concluded, Ken and Barbie's appearances aren't done — well, at least for their characters. According to a Puck News article, Ryan Gosling could appear alongside Margot Robbie once more in the Warner Bros. prequel to "Ocean's Eleven." Gosling has yet to reveal his participation in the film, which will be a descendant story for George Clooney's Danny Ocean, but it will not be confirmed in writing. However, we do know that Robbie is putting much of this latest Ocean's installment in Robbie's hands. It was previously announced that the Oscar-nominated actress would produce and appear in the forthcoming film, which would have a storyline set in the 1960s in Europe. Jay Roach, who also worked with Robbie on the film "Bombshell" in 2019, is directing the film, and Carrie Solomon will write the screenplay, which comes ahead of the 2018 heist comedy "Ocean's Eight." According to The Hollywood Reporter, the ultimate goal is to be in production by 2023.

Ryan Gosling may be starring in Ocean's Eleven cast for a prequel directed by Jay Roach. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the 41-year-old Notebook actor is in talks to officially commit to the upcoming film. Gosling will appear alongside Barbie costar Margot Robbie if the contract is finalized.
