Lionsgate's upcoming Monopoly movie has found its writers in John Francis Daley and Jonathan Goldstein, the creative duo behind the critically acclaimed Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves. Daley and Goldstein will pen the screenplay for this adaptation of Hasbro's iconic board game. The film will be produced by Margot Robbie through her production company, LuckyChap.
Daley and Goldstein's impressive resume extends beyond Honor Among Thieves, encompassing their original film Mayday and contributions to The Flash and Spider-Man: Homecoming.
The journey to bring Monopoly to the big screen has been a long one. Previous attempts, dating back to Ridley Scott's expressed interest in 2007 and subsequent collaborations with other writers, ultimately failed to materialize. However, Lionsgate's acquisition of eOne from Hasbro has breathed new life into the project, paving the way for this latest iteration. This new version, with Daley and Goldstein at the helm, offers a fresh perspective and renewed hope for a successful Monopoly movie.
