Updated 10.24 Fri May 25 2007

The biggest red carpet event of the Cannes Film Festival has taken place with the world premiere of Ocean's Thirteen.

George Clooney, Brad Pitt and Matt Damon were joined by co-stars Andy Garcia, Don Cheadle and Elliot Gould as thousands of fans turned up for the event.

Directed by Steven Soderbergh, this is the third film in the series and sees Al Pacino joining the cast of regulars

Brad Pitt escorted Angelina Jolie down the red carpet as the 31-year-old actress wore a stunning canary yellow gown, in contrast to the dark cocktail dress she wore for her own premiere earlier in the week.

The premiere also attracted a host of musical stars with rapper Timbaland arriving to the sound of his own hit Give It To Me, while Kylie Minogue was serenaded by her track Slow.

Directed by Steven Soderbergh, this is the third film in the series and sees Al Pacino joining the cast of regulars.

The first film, Ocean's Eleven, took around £226 million at the box office, while Ocean's Twelve made a further £182 million.
