Warner Bros. has released the first trailer for "Ocean's 8," giving first look into the all-female heist movie of 2018.

The over two-minute clip opens with Sandra Bullock, who plays the role of Debbie Ocean, sister of George Clooney's Danny Ocean character from the original trilogy, being interviewed by a parole officer while still in prison.

"If I were to be released, I would just want a simple life," she says in the trailer, as flashes of blings and parties are shown alongside her.

But as soon as she is out, Debbie meets with Lou (Cate Blanchett) to plan a heist. The two then set off to find the rightful members of their girl group, all with different skills and talents that should be helpful in their major project -- to rob the annual Met Gala, particularly the hundred-million-dollar necklace of A-list star Daphne Kluger (Anne Hathaway).

With the team consisting of Debbie, Lou, Nine Ball (Rihanna), Amita (Mindy Kaling), Tammy (Sarah Paulson), Constance (Awkwafina), and Rose (Helene Bonham Carter), viewers were quick to note that the "Ocean's 8" team is missing one more member.

Some believe that an eighth member will be revealed somewhere along the way. The most popular candidate is Daphne, who would complete the girl group and give the heist a twist by making it an inside job.

Amid the planning for the robbery, the trailer suggests that Danny Ocean has recently died, as Debbie is seen drinking a glass of martini in front of her brother's grave. There are those, however, who believe that in true Ocean plot twist, Danny might have just faked his death and he would appear before the film ends and reveal himself as the eighth robber.

Still, it could be the character of James Corden, who is seen talking to Debbie in the teaser.

With this only the first trailer for the action film, a lot of mysteries should still be revealed before "Ocean's 8" opens in cinemas on June 8, 2018.
