This 81st edition of the Venice festival once again had its share of stars between the duo Joaquin Phoenix-Lady Gaga for Joker: Madness for TwoDaniel Craig for the psychedelic QueerAdrien Brody for the “monumental” The Brutalist or even Brad Pitt and George Clooney who set the Lido alight with Wolfwhose first opinions were however divided. And precisely, the reunion between Pitt and Clooney seems to have given them ideas.
In fact, the two men are currently developing a fifth part of the saga. Ocean’s soberly titled Ocean’s 14 (for now). In addition, there is a rumor circulating: Brad Pitt and George Clooney are reportedly courting one of the most sought-after directors of the moment in Hollywood and who has just caused another sensation with his new film at the Telluride Festival.
An explosive return to the source
According to Deadline, This is the director Edward Berger who would be in the duo’s good books. The filmmaker was awarded an Oscar for Nothing new in the Westa shocking film about the First World War from a German point of view with Malickian overtones, and recently acclaimed for its papal thriller Conclavewhose first reviews are very positive. The choice of this eclectic director is surprising when you know the classic style of films directed by Steven Soderbergh (we don’t know if he will be involved in the project).

Suffice to say that at this stage, the potential arrival of Edward Berger should be taken with a grain of salt.
To return to Ocean’s 14, George Clooney assured in an interview that he had a solid script and in the style of Going in Style for this new opus. That said, after the very shaky female spin-off Ocean’s 8, This possible sequel to the original trilogy surprises as much as it frightensespecially when we know what the endless sequels of great sagas that were supposed to have been finished for decades are worth.
In any case, it is an understatement to say that Helmer Edward Berger’s Hollywood career seems to be well underway. It is surely only a matter of time before the German director launches into big Hollywood productions (at the risk of losing all his personality?). Until further information, Wolf starring Brad Pitt and George Clooney will be available on September 27, 2024 on Apple TV+ et Conclave directed by Edward Berger will be released in theaters on December 4, 2024.
