This morning, the latest movie in the Ocean’s franchise began filming in NYC, and we’re already starting to get details about what and where they’ll be shooting!

Ocean’s Eight, which we’ve confirmed is filming under the working title Linus, will follow a team of female thieves working together to steal a necklace from the Met Ball and frame a crooked gallery owner for the crime.

The film, which is reportedly, “an extension and a continuation” of the Ocean’s trilogy, will have an all-star cast including Sandra Bullock, Sarah Paulson, Helena Bonham Carter, Anne Hathaway, Cate Blanchett, Mindy Kaling, Rihanna and Awkwafina.

Sandra Bullock’s character will provide the tie in to the original movies as she is said to be the sister of the Ocean’s character, Danny Ocean (George Clooney). Steven Soderbergh and George Clooney are producing Ocean’s Eight, while Gary Ross directs. Ocean’s Eight is expected to hit theaters on June 8, 2018.

According to casting calls, the movie is filming in Brooklyn today, 10/20 and tomorrow, 10/21.
