I don't think Hathaway's character is the mark, my guess is that it's either Richard Armitage or Damian Lewis, the latter hasn't appeared in any of the marketing yet.

Yeah, they don't even try to hide it anymore that she's part of the team of thieves.

Maybe I'm wrong since it's been a while but it felt like they tried in the first teaser, didn't it?

I am SHOCKED, SHOCKED that the WB Marketing is dropping the ball on the Met Gala with their twitter right now.  No E Interviews?  No Tweets/ReTweets of the casts' dresses?  Do they even know how to do their job?

 

 

I'm so hyped for this movie.  Look at this beautiful cast:

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

 

If it's apparent in the main trailer and posters, I would guess it's rather apparent early on in the movie, as well.

This is the part of the business I don't care about at all.  I don't care about the dresses and the makeup and who did their hair.  That' rich people stuff.  Just give me the cast together in jeans or Yoga pants and drop me a trailer and all is well.

Agreed. Given that the movie takes place during the Met Gala per the trailer, WB should have sent all eight stars there, especially Bullock and Blanchett. Tonight's event is more important than any press junket or late night talk show interview when it comes to targeting the female demographic that is critical for the film's box office success. Disney may be the only studio remaining in Hollywood that actually excels at marketing their films nowadays.

Know who does care?  Women.  Know who the movie's marketed too?  Women.  It's ALL over Twitter and Tumblr and Insta right now.  It's trending #1 on Twitter right now (#MetGala, #HeavenlyBodies).  They are idiots for not trying to capture that audience.

YUUUUP.

 

The Hollywood Reporter is LITERALLY DOING what the WB Intern running that Twitter account should be doing right now:

No diamond necklace? Did the gals of #Oceans8 already steal it? Anne Hathaway has arrived at the #MetGala. pic.twitter.com/5JLOTm0m6D

Come on now, B. You should know as well as the rest of us that we (and by "we" I'm referring to the overwhelmingly male-populated BOT) are not this film's target market.

Yeap. That's why Disney flops with every their original (more or less) project.

I think this movie will become huge. All ladies night previews have sold 60-95% of their seats more than a month in advance in the big cities of my country. 

[Krissykins]

Yeh WB made a post to their Instagram too with the 4 ladies who attended.

I think this will breakout as well. It’s a good antidote to the various blockbusters
