Julia Roberts confirms Ocean’s 14 script is strong as George Clooney and co-stars prepare for filming. Warner Bros. has officially approved the production, with filming expected to begin in mid-2026.

George Clooney confirmed that the studio has greenlit the budget and the team is now working on scheduling the shoot. The announcement marks the long-awaited return of the iconic heist franchise more than two decades later, which began with Ocean’s Eleven in 2001.

Julia Roberts recently spoke about the project during the Golden Globes pre-show. “Yes, I have seen a script. And I was kind of surprised, because I was like, ‘Oh, what is the story going to be?’ And it’s good. I mean, we wouldn’t do it if it’s not good,” she said.

Leading cast members George Clooney, Julia Roberts, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, and Don Cheadle are set to reprise their roles as Danny Ocean, Tess, Rusty Ryan, Linus Caldwell, and Basher Tarr, respectively. While other returning actors like Casey Affleck, Scott Caan, and Elliott Gould have not confirmed participation, Andy Garcia has previously indicated he will return as antagonist Terry Benedict.
