Ryan Gosling rumored to be joining Margot Robbie in new ‘Ocean’s Eleven’ film

shutterstock_1319944424-2

The Hollywood Reporter has confirmed that Ryan Gosling is in negotiations to join Margot Robbie in the ‘Ocean’s Eleven’ reboot film for Warner Bros.  The new movie will be helmed by Jay Roach, with Robbie producing with Tom Ackerley and Michelle Graham. Details are being kept under wraps, but rumors say it will be an original Ocean’s Eleven tale that is set in Europe in the 1960s.  The project has not been greenlit, but is expected to begin production in Spring 2023.

The Ocean’s Eleven franchise was launched in 2001 when Steven Soderbergh directed the comedy featuring George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Julia Roberts, Matt Damon and others. That remake of the 1960 Rat Pack movie turned into a successful franchise, with the first movie earning over $450 million worldwide theatrically and two more installments being released in 2004 and 2007. The franchise returned in 2018 with Ocean’s 8, a female-led spinoff featuring Sandra Bullock, Helena Bonham Carter and Rihanna.

Gosling also currently teaming up with Robbie on the live-action Warner Bros. film Barbie. The actor also co-stars with Emily Blunt in director David Leitch’s stuntman action-drama The Fall Guy for Universal Pics.

Blackpink drop the video for their new song “Pink Venom”

shutterstock_1997899463-2

K-pop girl group Blackpink have shared the video for their lead single “Pink Venom” taken off their forthcoming sophomore LP Born Pink. You can take a look at the video for Pink Venom – here.

Born Pink is set to drop on September 16 via YG Entertainment. Blackpink’s upcoming record arrives two years after their debut, The Album, which included the Selena Gomez collaboration “Ice Cream.” The album release was revealed along with news of the group’s upcoming world tour.

Tthe members of Blackpink—Jennie, Jisoo, Lisa, and Rosé—discussed their songwriting process in a recent interview with Rolling Stone. Said Jisoo: “We don’t just receive a completed song. We are involved from the beginning, building the blocks, adding this or that feeling, exchanging feedback—and this process of creating makes me feel proud of our music. If we just received pre-made songs, it would feel mechanical. I feel more love for the process, because we say, ‘How about adding this in the lyrics? How about adding this move in the choreography?” Rapper Jennie added: “I don’t think hip-hop is just about rapping. Look at Rihanna, she could make anything hip-hop. Hip-hop means something different to everyone. To me, it’s the spirit of cool—vibes, swag, whatever words you can use. I think Blackpink’s hip-hop is something the world hasn’t seen before. We, four girls in their twenties from different backgrounds, are using Korean and English to weave pop music with a hip-hop base. Maybe if the really cool rappers in America, who do “real hip-hop,” look at us, it can seem a little like kids doing things. Our hip-hop isn’t the rebellious kind, but we are doing something very cool. What hip-hop is this? I don’t know! It’s just cool!”
