Anne Hathaway and Rihanna have joined the cast of the female-led Ocean’s Eight, which will begin producing in October.
Deadline reported Wednesday Hathaway, Rihanna and rapper-actress Nora Lum (aka Awkwafina) are all near closing deals for the film, as are previously reported cast mates Helena Bonham Carter and Mindy Kaling.
Sandra Bullock and Cate Blanchett lead the cast of the film, which is a spinoff of the 2001 film Ocean's Eleven starring George Clooney, Matt Damon and Brad Pitt.
An eighth role has yet to filled, according to The Hollywood Reporter, which also noted the project will likely be dubbed Ocean's Ocho.
