The Ocean's Trilogy is a series of three caper comedies directed by Steven Soderbergh and produced by Jerry Weintraub for Warner Bros. between 2001 and 2007. The first of the films, Ocean's Eleven was a remake of the 1960 film of the same name and was followed, due to an immense commercial success, by sequels Ocean's Twelve (2004) and Ocean's Thirteen (2007). The films combined well known elements from heist films and con artist films, presented in a slick and cool style, with a notable absence of violence and gunplay and an emphasis on humor and lightheartedness.

[edit] Ocean's Eleven
Just out of prison, master thief Danny Ocean plans an elaborate casino-heist to win back his ex-wife, recruiting a wild bunch of thieves and con men to pull off the complex job.
[edit] Ocean's Twelve
The Ocean's crew goes to Europe for some heists to get back enough money to pay casino tycoon Terry Benedict, but seem to run into a thievery competition with a mysterious French colleague.
[edit] Ocean's Thirteen
The eleven plan to rig a new casino's opening night after its ruthless owner (Al Pacino) double crosses one of the gang.
[edit] Future
Although the numbering of the titles (11, 12, 13) could potentially go on forever, which has been the subject of jokes both in interviews with cast and crew and in the media (TV-episodes, internet clips, etc.), those involved with the series have confirmed there will be no Ocean's Fourteen or subsequent sequels.[1] With the unexpected death of actor Bernie Mac, any further possibility of the team getting back on their word seems to have diminished completely.
