Anne Hathaway once reflected on what it was like working on ‘Ocean’s 8’ after having to get her body back into shape due to a pregnancy.

Actor Anne Hathaway has played a variety of roles since her breakthrough film The Princess Diaries. Not too long ago, she joined Sandra Bullock and many other stars for the action thriller Ocean’s 8. She not only enjoyed her time on the feature but was pleasantly surprised by the sisterhood she experienced there.

Hathaway found herself playing a bad guy in the 2018 feature Ocean’s 8. Similar to its predecessors led by Brad Pitt, Ocean’s 8 featured a team of women brought together for a major bank heist. Hathaway’s character would be the target of the professional thieves, which included the likes of Sandra Bullock, Cate Blanchett, and Rihanna. But although Hathaway wouldn’t be teaming up with the other actors onscreen, there was plenty of solidarity between her and her co-stars behind the scenes.

Speaking on The Ellen Show, Hathaway reflected on her time on the set of Ocean’s 8. Back then, she was coming off of a pregnancy and confided she had a difficult time getting the weight off before filming the movie.

But Hathaway pushed those thoughts to the back of her head and went on with filming the movie full of confidence. While on set, however, she discovered just how encouraging her Ocean’s 8 co-stars were.

“Rihanna looks up and goes, ‘Damn girl, you got an ass,’” Hathaway said. “And I, of course, was freaked out and loved it so much and I was like, ‘Really?’ And she goes, ‘You got an ass like me.’”

It seems that the friendship Hathaway developed with her Ocean’s 8 group continued after the movie. Although Hathaway admitted that she only spent a lot of time with one member of the ensemble team.

Hathaway was also asked if she saw herself teaming up with the rest of her Ocean’s 8 teammates ever again. But as is the case with most films, the Brokeback Mountain actor asserted it was mostly up to the film’s performance.
