In October, news broke that Sandra Bullock was [on board](http://www.ew.com/article/2015/10/30/sandra-bullock-oceans-eleven) to lead an all-female reboot of _Ocean’s Eleven,_ directed by _The Hunger Games’_ Gary Ross and titled _Ocean’s Eight._ Now, EW has learned that Warner Bros. is locking down its principal cast for the project, adding Cate Blanchett, Helena Bonham Carter, Rihanna, Anne Hathaway, Mindy Kaling, and Awkwafina. (Awkwafina is the stage name of Nora Lum, a rapper and comedian who most recently appeared in _Neighbors 2: Sorority Rising._) Back in June, Bonham Carter told EW that she wasn’t officially on board yet, but she had read the screenplay (written by Olivia Milch) and loved it. “It’s a really good script — but I still don’t know if I’m going to be in it,” she [said at the time.](http://www.ew.com/article/2016/06/28/helena-bonham-carter-oceans-eight) “But it’s a great script, and it’s great for women. Just hilarious.” Steven Soderbergh, who directed the George Clooney-starring _Ocean’s Eleven_ trilogy, is also on hand as a producer, and he and Ross are longtime friends and collaborators. (Soderbergh famously shot second unit on _The Hunger Games._) Earlier this summer, Ross [opened up](http://www.ew.com/article/2016/06/15/gary-ross-oceans-eight-female-oceans-eleven-spinoff) about the new _Ocean’s Eight_ in an interview with _SlashFilm_, saying that he viewed his film as “an extension and a continuation” of Soderbergh’s tone. Not all of the actresses’ deals have officially closed yet, and casting is still ongoing. Production on _Ocean’s Eight_ is set to begin this October.
