Margot Robbie’s ‘Ocean’s’ Prequel Officially Taps a ‘Narcos’ Icon for Villain Role

Margot Robbie has become one of the biggest movie stars in the world over the last 5–10 years, and also one of the most dependable actors at the box office. The first hit that comes to mind is Barbie, which is not only Robbie’s highest-grossing film of her career, but also one of the biggest box office hits of all time. Even earlier this year, she teamed up with Euphoria breakout Jacob Elordi for a new Wuthering Heights adaptation directed by Emerald Fennell, which grossed over $240 million at the box office. Robbie’s box office reputation took a hit last year when she teamed up with Colin Farrell for the romantic fantasy epic, A Big Bold Beautiful Journey, which grossed only $22 million globally against a $45 million budget, but she’ll look to get back on track with a new project moving forward fast.

One of the most exciting projects in the works for Robbie is an Ocean’s Eleven prequel that’s been in the works for a while now. The film has been dated for release on June 25, 2027, but little is known about the film, other than Robbie is starring opposite Bradley Cooper, who is also directing. However, this afternoon, news broke that recent Oscar nominee Wagner Moura is the first big name to join the cast of Robbie and Cooper’s Ocean’s Eleven prequel film. While specifics about Moura’s role are being kept under wraps at this time, it is being reported that he will play the feature villain. Moura has experience playing the villain in the hit Netflix original series, Narcos, where he portrays the infamous crime boss Pablo Escobar.

Your Universe Has Been Chosen
You Belong In…

Your answers point to the iconic universe your values, your instincts, and your particular way of seeing the world were built for. This is where you would find your people — and your purpose.


A Galaxy Far, Far Away

Star Wars

You believe in the cause — in the idea that freedom is worth fighting for even when the odds are impossible and the empire is vast.

  • You are drawn to the moral clarity of a universe where hope itself is a form of resistance.
  • You’d find your people in the Rebellion — a ragtag coalition of true believers held together by conviction more than resources.
  • Star Wars is fundamentally a story about ordinary people choosing to matter in an extraordinary conflict — and that is exactly your kind of story.
  • The Force may or may not be with you. But the will to use it for something larger than yourself certainly is.


Middle-earth

Lord of the Rings

You understand, in the deepest part of yourself, that the journey matters as much as the destination — and that the world’s beauty is worth protecting even at great cost.

  • Middle-earth is a world of ancient wonder, deep friendship, and a darkness that only retreats when enough small acts of courage accumulate.
  • You would thrive here because you value the fellowship more than the glory — the road more than the arrival.
  • Tolkien’s universe rewards patience, loyalty, and the willingness to carry something heavy across a very long distance.
  • Those are not burdens to you. They are simply how you move through the world.


The Wizarding World

Harry Potter

You believe that love, loyalty, and doing what’s right are not naive sentiments — they are the most powerful forces in any world, magical or otherwise.

  • The Wizarding World is a place of wonder hidden in plain sight, where learning is transformative and the bonds you form at school follow you into every battle.
  • You would flourish here because you take both the magic and the friendships seriously — and you understand that one without the other is incomplete.
  • Harry Potter’s universe ultimately rewards those who choose to stand for something even when standing is terrifying.
  • That choice — made quietly, without guarantee — is something you understand completely.


Westeros · The Known World

Game of Thrones

You see the world clearly — its power structures, its hypocrisies, its brutal arithmetic — and you are not paralysed by that clarity. You use it.

  • Westeros is a world that rewards intelligence, adaptability, and the willingness to understand that every alliance is also a negotiation.
  • You would survive here — possibly thrive here — because you don’t confuse the world as it is with the world as you’d like it to be.
  • Game of Thrones is a story about what happens when the idealists and the realists collide. You are sharp enough to know which one lasts longer.
  • Winter always comes. You are already prepared.


The United Federation of Planets

Star Trek

You believe the future is worth building — that curiosity, cooperation, and the expansion of understanding are not just ideals but the most practical path forward for any civilisation.

  • Star Trek is a universe where the questions matter as much as the answers, and where encountering something utterly alien is cause for wonder rather than fear.
  • You would belong here because you are fundamentally optimistic about what intelligence and decency can achieve — while being honest about how hard that achievement is.
  • The Federation is the universe’s most ambitious thought experiment: what if we actually got better?
  • You don’t just hope that’s possible. You think it’s the only thing worth working toward.

Wagner Moura Recently Joined the Star Wars Universe

Fresh off his first Academy Award nomination, Wagner Moura joined the Star Wars universe as a key character in the latest animated Disney Plus series, Maul — Shadow Lord. Fans have speculated that his character, Brander Lawson, perished at the end of Season 1, which would seemingly rule him out from returning as the character in Season 2. However, fans know well enough by now that if there wasn’t a body, you can’t fully count on anyone being dead. Moura also expressed interest to Collider in playing the character in live-action at some point in the future.

Stay tuned to Collider for more updates on Margot Robbie and Bradley Cooper’s Ocean’s Eleven prequel film, which is coming to theaters on June 25, 2027.
