Margot Robbie will star in A24's The Week of Pain, written and directed by Kristoffer Borgli, with the project announced Friday, November 13. Plot details have not been released. A24 will produce and finance the film alongside Ari Aster and Lars Knudsen's Square Peg, Dilemma Films and Robbie's LuckyChap production company. Variety reported that the film's reported plot remains under wraps, and noted Borgli's earlier films Dream Scenario and Sick of Myself, which it described as squirmy dramas with cringe-inducing humor. Borgli previously worked with A24 and Square Peg on The Drama, a Robert Pattinson and Zendaya dramedy that Variety said grossed $135 million worldwide on a $28 million budget, while Just Jared put its worldwide gross at $134 million. Robbie's most recent film was Wuthering Heights for Warner Bros., which earned $241 million worldwide, and she is currently filming an Ocean's 11 prequel with Bradley Cooper, who is also directing.
