Margot Robbie to produce 'blockbuster' Monopoly movie with Hasbro.


Margot Robbie's LuckyChap producing label has hopped onboard the film adaptation of the board game "Monopoly" at Hasbro Entertainment and Lionsgate.

Plot details for the film remain under wraps at this time. A director and cast have not yet been announced.

In a statement, LuckyChap called it "a top property – pun fully intended" while Lionsgate's film chief, Adam Fogelson, said the company is "tremendously excited" to work on what they believe will be Robbie's "next blockbuster".

Monopoly is the world’s most popular board game, with 99% global awareness. It is available in more than 100 countries and has sold nearly half a billion copies since 1935.

LuckyChap most recently produced Barbie, the Oscar-winning hit that has taken in over $1.4 billion worldwide at the global box office.

Robbie and her producing partners, including husband Tom Ackerley, are also set to make the R-rated Christmas comedy Naughty with director Olivia Wilde. Last month it was also revealed that LuckyChap would be bringing the long-running video game The Sims to the screen.
