Margot Robbie joins Kristoffer Borgli’s A24 film The Week of Pain
Borgli will write and direct the film, with A24 financing and producing alongside Square Peg, Dilemma Films and Robbie’s LuckyChap.
Margot Robbie has signed on for a starring role in The Week of Pain, an A24 film that Kristoffer Borgli will write and direct, Deadline reported on November 13. Details of the plot have not been disclosed.
A24 will provide financing and serve as a producer. The other producers are Square Peg, the company of Lars Knudsen and Ari Aster; Dilemma Films; and LuckyChap, Robbie’s production company.
The project brings Borgli back together with A24 and Square Peg after their collaboration on The Drama. That film, a romantic dark comedy featuring Robert Pattinson and Zendaya, opened earlier in 2026 and took US$134 million at the global box office.
Robbie, a 36-year-old Oscar nominee, has also been working in Europe on the Ocean’s Eleven prequel in recent months. Bradley Cooper is both her co-star and the director of that film. The Week of Pain is her next announced acting role.
