Matt Damon’s Hopes for the Lucky 14th: A Real Ocean’s Dream
Forget the usual Hollywood chatter – the 50‑year‑old actor who once played the clever daredevil Linus Caldwell in Steven Soderbergh’s classic heist trilogy has just lit the way for a potential next chapter in the Ocean’s saga.
Why the Reboot Matters
On SiriusXM’s Jess Cagle Show, Damon set the record straight:
- “Since we wrapped Ocean’s Thirteen I’m all set for a 14th – it’s been my stance from the very first day after filming.”
He’s not just pulling at nostalgia. #respect
Paying Tribute to the Late Legends
Matt points out that any new entry must honor the late icons who made the series unforgettable – Bernie Mac and Carl Reiner, both giants who have since slipped away.
- “We’ve lost two stalwarts, Bernie and Carl. A new film has to respect that legacy… who will nail that vision?”
- “It’s up to a brilliant screenwriter, but our crew still keeps that bond. We’re all poised to return.”
Staying true to the original vibe isn’t just a nod. It’s a promise to the fans.
Remember the‑G
Even the legendary George Clooney, who brought Danny Ocean to life, gushes about working on the series:
- “I never got a complaint from him.”
- “On Rome’s second shoot he joked about getting elbowed in the face by people chasing Brad.”
It’s these real moments that turn a movie into a cultural touchstone.
What’s Next?
If the stars align – with the crew still tight-knit and the fresh screenplay ready – then Ocean’s 14 might just hit the silver screen soon. Stay tuned, because that heist trilogy could still wind down with a bang… or a laugh!
