Seriously—what a time to be alive.
Ocean's Eleven director Steven Soderbergh will be producing the film, and Gary Ross (The Hunger Games, Seabiscuit, Pleasantville) will be directing. The screenplay was written by Ross and Olivia Milch (Queen & Country, Little Women), and the film is set to begin shooting in October in New York.
Now, the only question is—who's going to be the 8th cast member?
Please let it be Beyoncé. 🙏
