Though vapid actress Daphne Kluger (Anne Hathaway) is initially supposed to be the mark for Debbie Ocean (Sandra Bullock) and her team's heist, she's eventually roped into the crew after she figures out the ruse and is then revealed to be the eighth member.

Except, this has zero impact or shock value because it was made hilariously obvious by the film's trailers, which mostly depicted Daphne as vapid and ditzy, as was totally at odds with her more obnoxious, straight-laced character in the final movie.

Even on its own terms, though, it's pretty much the least imaginative reveal possible, especially as the team still had one slot open until the very end of the movie, and short of Julia Roberts coming back to fill the opening, who else would it be?
