TRIVIA

OCEAN'S 11: The wig used by Rusty (Brad Pitt) in his disguise as a doctor was Mike Myers's rehearsal wig for Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery (1997).

 

OCEAN'S 11:  Matt Damon's part as Linus Caldwell, pick pocket was meant for Mark Wahlberg.

 

OCEAN'S 11: Luke Wilson and Owen Wilson were to play the brothers Virgil and Turk, but dropped out to film The Royal Tenenbaums (2001).

 

 

 

OCEAN'S 12: Before filming began, Brad Pitt put out a memo to all crew members stating that they only address George Clooney as his character's name Danny Ocean or Mr. Ocean. Eventually Clooney found out about this and got back at Pitt by putting bumper stickers on the back of his car that read "I'm gay and I vote" and "Small penis on board".
 

OCEAN'S 12: While on production in Rome, Brad Pitt and George Clooney were not allowed back into the hotel because the doorman thought they were vagrants after the actors were caught in a rain storm while jogging.

 

OCEAN'S 12: When Bruce Willis is in Tess's hotel room, Linus says to Bruce, "We're looking to come off this pregnancy thing strong. You know, that little statue on the mantle starts smirking at you after a while, know what I mean?" Bruce says no, he doesn't. Both Julia Roberts, whom he refers to, and Matt Damon have been awarded Oscars, while Willis has not.

 

 

 

OCEAN'S 13: The gold cellphone Willie Bank receive from Abigail Sponder is a gold phone which was custom made by Samsung for the movie.

 

OCEAN'S 13: Matt Damon's London street scene, showing Linus walking through London speaking on the phone was shot while Matt Damon was in London filming The Bourne Ultimatum. The Ocean's Thirteen production took advantage of this happy coincidence as they wanted Greco to be a British classmate of Roman Nagel, so having Linus in London played well to the story.

 

OCEAN'S 13: All members of the Caldwell (Linus') family that we know of have impersonated some kind of law-enforcing agent in the three 'Ocean' movies. Linus impersonated an officer of the NGC (Nevada Gaming Commission) in 11, his mother acted as a US Marshal in 12, and his father, Bobby, impersonated an FBI agent in 13.
