Margot Robbie to Headline Gambling Biopic Dangerous Odds

Screenwriter Andrea Berloff (World Trade CenterStraight Outta Compton) is set to adapt Lankester’s memoir of the same name, which chronicles her role in the creation of the first offshore gambling empire, its ties to the mob, her rape at the hands of a Dominican general, imprisonment and eventual escape to Switzerland.

After capturing the public’s attention in Martin Scorsese’s The Wolf of Wall Street, Robbie has become a priority player at Warner Bros., co-starring with Will Smith in February’s Focus, as Jane in their big budget Tarzan remake, as well as landing the villainess Harley Quinn in Suicide Squad.
