Margot Robbie to Star in A24 Horror Drama The Week of Pain
A24 and Square Peg have confirmed that Margot Robbie will star in Kristoffer Borgli's upcoming film The Week of Pain.
Production Partners and Financing Details
A24 is set to produce and finance the project alongside Square Peg. Lars Knudsen and Ari Aster's banner will also produce with Dilemma Films and Robbie's LuckyChap. The studio recently collaborated with Borgli on April's The Drama which starred Robert Pattinson and Zendaya. That film grossed $135 million worldwide against a slim $28 million budget.
Director History and Previous Works
Kristoffer Borgli previously wrote and directed Dream Scenario for the studio in 2023. His earlier work Sick of Myself suggests another squirmy drama with cringe-out humor might follow. Robbie most recently appeared in Wuthering Heights for Warner Bros where she played Cathy opposite Jacob Elordi. The literary romance rocketed to $241 million worldwide after its release on Feb 13.
Upcoming Projects and Cast News
Robbie is currently wrapping production on an Ocean's prequel directed by Bradley Cooper. She will presumably play the mom of George Clooney's Danny Ocean in the epic heist story. The film follows a heist at the 1962 Monaco Grand Prix as revealed at CinemaCon 2026. Monica Barbaro and other actors are joining the cast for this new project.
