According to industry sources, Margot Robbie is in advanced talks to star as a gender-swapped version of Patrick Bateman in the hyped remake of American Psycho, directed by Luca Guadagnino with a script by Scott Z. Burns. The new take on the story aims to reframe the narrative by placing a woman at the centre of the serial-killer thriller, offering a fresh perspective on the controversial tale. While no deal has been finalized, insiders say Robbie is “strongly positioned” for the lead role.
