The upcoming Monopoly movie from Lionsgate has taken a significant step forward with the announcement that John Francis Daley and Jonathan Goldstein, the creative minds behind Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves, will be penning the screenplay. This exciting news was shared today, confirming that the film, based on Hasbro's iconic board game, is moving ahead with strong talent at the helm.
Adding to the anticipation, the film will be produced by Margot Robbie through her production company, LuckyChap. Daley and Goldstein, who have also recently written and directed the original film Mayday, bring a wealth of experience to the project. Their previous work includes writing for blockbuster hits like The Flash and Spider-Man: Homecoming, showcasing their ability to craft compelling narratives.
The journey to bring Monopoly to the big screen has been long and winding. Discussions about a Monopoly film date back to 2007 when Ridley Scott showed interest in directing. In 2011, Scott enlisted Scott Alexander and Larry Karaszewski to write the script, but that project never materialized. Subsequent attempts in 2015 saw Lionsgate and Hasbro collaborating on a version written by Andrew Niccol, followed by reports in 2019 that actor Kevin Hart and director Tim Story were set to be involved. However, none of these earlier efforts came to fruition.
The current momentum for the Monopoly movie stems from Lionsgate's acquisition of eOne from Hasbro, which has reignited efforts to bring this beloved game to life on screen. With Daley and Goldstein's proven track record and Margot Robbie's involvement, fans can look forward to a fresh and exciting take on the classic game. Here's hoping this version of the film successfully passes Go and delivers a cinematic experience that captures the essence of Monopoly.
