Margot Robbie and Bradley Cooper were photographed filming scenes for an upcoming Ocean's Eleven prequel on the French Riviera. The actors, who are co-starring in the heist reboot, were seen on Monday in Villefranche-sur-Mer.

The film is reportedly set in 1962 and is expected to focus on the parents of Danny Ocean. Robbie, 36, was seen wearing a retro denim-look bikini and shorts. Cooper, 51, appeared shirtless in patterned shorts and a blue sunhat.

The co-stars were also recently seen filming an intimate scene on a hotel balcony in the same picturesque town. Robbie, dressed in a 1960s-inspired halterneck midi-dress, shared a kiss with Cooper.

Cooper's relationship status with supermodel Gigi Hadid was mentioned in the reporting. Robbie is married to film producer Tom Ackerley.

Tourists who observed the filming described the town as being transformed to resemble the 1960s. The production has been filming extensively in the South of France.

The cast also includes Monica Barbaro, Vicky Krieps, George MacKay, Jack Holden, Lauren Ridloff, Omar Sy, Wagner Moura, and Josh Gad.

Robbie has been attached to the project since 2022. It was previously reported that Ryan Gosling might also be involved, though his participation remains unclear.

Producer Josey McNamara has stated that the team is focused on honoring the franchise. "I'm excited for people to experience it when it's ready," McNamara said.
