Having broken though with her performance as Leonardo DiCaprio’s wife in The Wolf of Wall Street, Australian actress Margot Robbie, pictured, has set her sights on her next movie project.
Explains Heat Vision, the actress is in negotiations to join the cast of Z for Zachariah, a post-apocalyptic indie that stars both Chris Pine and Chiwetel Ejiofor.
Craig Zobel is directing the movie which adapt the novel by Robert C. O’Brien and “centers on a American teen who has survived a nuclear war.“
Amanda Seyfried was to have originally starred as a teen on a farm who is seemingly the sole survivor but soon finds herself with a visitor. Robbie will replace Seyfried and the character will be aged up. The movie had been pushed back from its 2013 start date and Seyfried could no longer commit to the part.
Nissar Modi wrote the script.
