David Leitch In Early Talks To Direct ‘Ocean’s 14’, Brad Pitt To Return

January 23, 2025: The news about Ocean’s 14 potentially being directed by David Leitch is intriguing! Leitch, known for his high-energy action direction, especially with films like John Wick and Bullet Train, could bring a fresh but still thrilling angle to the Ocean’s franchise. His expertise in choreographing action and stunts could elevate the already intense and stylish heist sequences we’re used to from the series.

The return of George Clooney as Danny Ocean, along with Brad Pitt and the rest of the crew, is sure to excite fans. The chemistry between Clooney and Pitt has always been a highlight, and seeing them team up again for another high-stakes heist will definitely reignite the magic of the original trilogy. The fact that Matt Damon and Casey Affleck are also returning helps maintain that sense of continuity.

It’s also interesting that Ocean’s 14 will be the first in the main series not directed by Steven Soderbergh, who gave the trilogy its signature feel. While that’s a big change, Leitch’s direction could add an exciting new layer to the series, especially with his background in action films.

On top of that, the prequel with Ryan Gosling and Margot Robbie adds even more depth to the Ocean’s universe. The idea of a heist set in 1960s Europe is intriguing, and it’ll be exciting to see how they tie that into the overall world of the franchise.

What are your thoughts on how the series is evolving with these new projects? Do you think Ocean’s 14 can live up to the previous films?
