Margot Robbie Was Planning A Female-Led ‘Pirates Of The Caribbean’ Spin off
Whilst getting reading for the release of ‘Babylon‘ next month and ‘Barbie‘ next summer, Margot Robbie is also involved in other projects. One of them is the preproduction of ‘Ocean’s Eleven‘ prequel that she’ll star in and produce. Apart from this prequel, she was also involved in the making of a ‘Pirates Of The Caribbean‘ spin-off movie.
Talking to Vanity Fair, the ‘Suicide Squad‘ actress described the vision she was plotting for the spinoff. “We had an idea, and we were developing it for a while, ages ago, to have more of a female-led—not totally female-led, but just a different kind of story—which we thought would’ve been really cool,” Margot explained. However, the spin-off now stands canceled following Disney‘s rejection of the plot. “I guess they don’t want to do it,” Margot said about Disney’s decision of scrapping it.

‘Barbie’: The Iconic Doll Is Ready To Exceed Everyone’s Expectations
Margot Robbie, along with Greta Gerwig, has co-written and directed the upcoming 2023 release, ‘Barbie‘. The movie will take on a completely different turn with the doll subverting the most obvious expectations that the audience would have from a movie like ‘Barbie‘ considering that the doll was always presented according to certain stereotypical qualities we’ve seen from a young age.
“Making an obvious Barbie movie would’ve been extremely easy to do and anything easy to do is probably not worth doing,” Margot said. ‘Barbie‘ will hit the theatres on July 23, 2023. Ryan Reynolds will play Ken in the film.
