Actress Margot Robbie has garnered attention for her fashion choices while in Paris for the filming of an ‘Ocean’s Eleven’ prequel. Her recent appearances have featured a variety of styles, including a retro 1960s-inspired white micro minidress paired with a Chanel bag and bucket hat, as well as a black bustier and floral midi pencil skirt ensemble.

Production has officially begun on the unnamed prequel, which is written and directed by Bradley Cooper. Robbie and Cooper star as the parents of Danny Ocean, exploring the character’s origins. Set against the backdrop of the 1962 Monaco Grand Prix, the plot follows a pair of elite con artists planning a major heist during the motor racing event. Filming has been observed at locations such as Place Vendôme.

As of late August 2026, filming is underway with production spotted in both Paris and Monaco. The prequel, currently titled ‘Sandcastles’, has commenced filming in Monaco with a scheduled conclusion around August 28. To facilitate the shoot, local authorities have implemented traffic restrictions, including the closure of portions of the Formula 1 street circuit and the legendary tunnel. Key locations being utilized include Port Hercule, Casino Square, the Casino de Monte-Carlo, and Café de Paris. The production features hundreds of extras in period-accurate costumes and vintage racing cars to maintain historical authenticity.

While initial schedules suggested a June 2027 release, recent reports indicate the movie is currently scheduled for release in late May 2027.
