David Leitch is in early talks to direct Ocean’s 14, the Smokehouse-produced caper franchise for Warner Bros that will mark the first one not directed by Steven Soderbergh, sources confirm. We’d reported that Conclave helmer Edward Berger was in talks, but those have gone away. The intention is to bring the original cast back in the fold. Leitch is coming off the Ryan Gosling-Emily Blunt-starrer Fall Guy and the Brad Pitt-starrer before that. Pitt’s part of the core Ocean’s cast along with George Clooney, Matt Damon, and others. The talks were first reported by The InSneider.
