News Monopoly From Barbie to B&;amp;O Railroad: Margot Robbie to Produce Monopoly Movie Will there be people playing top hats? Will someone go directly to jail? Will everyone build a hotel on Broadway? By Vanessa Armstrong | Published on April 10‚ 2024 Comment 0 Share New Share Margot Robbie‚ who recently starred in and produced the blockbuster Barbie (pictured above)‚ is setting her sights on another toy-related property. During CinemaCon today‚ Lionsgate‚ which owns the rights to the Monopoly IP‚ announced that Robbies company LuckyChap will be taking on a live-action film based on the board game. Hasbro Entertainment is also producing.I could not imagine a better production team for this beloved and iconic brand than LuckyChap‚ Lionsgate chair‚ Adam Fogelson‚ said (per Variety). They are exceptional producers who choose their projects with great thought and care‚ and join Monopoly with a clear point of view. We are tremendously excited to be working with the entire LuckyChap team on what we all believe can be their next blockbuster.Details on the plot remain murky beyond Fogelsons comment above about Robbies studio having a point of view on what to do with the capitalistic game. What that means exactly remains to be seen. Will Robbie play a major role‚ like the shoe game piece? Or perhaps the iron? Will someone go to jail‚ directly to jail? Will anyone get $200? Will Baltic Ave. finally get its due?Well have to wait and see‚ though LuckyChap is chuffed to take it on. Monopoly is a top propertypun fully intended‚ said a LuckyChap representative. Like all of the best IP‚ this game has resonated worldwide for generations‚ and we are so excited to bring this game to life alongside the wonderful teams involved at Lionsgate and Hasbro.No news yet on when it will go into production or build a hotel on a theater near you.
