Could we see a dream team team-up between Margot Robbie and Olivia Wilde? Deadline reports Robbie’s LuckyChap Productions and director Wilde are circling a live-action adaptation of Rob Liefeld’s Avengelyne.
The film will be based on a comic book by the creator of Deadpool, and Simon Kinberg and Audrey Chon will produce it through their Genre banner. Rumors have swirled that Robbie is also in talks to star in the film, but her camp has denied that to the outlet.
Deadline posts a description of the character and story: “Avengelyne is an angel who fights the forces of evil and often finds herself face-to-face with demons and monsters. She was the most feared warrior in Heaven’s Warhost, having single-handedly broken into Pandemonium, the outer fortress of Hell, to confront the Devil himself. She is a fallen angel, banished from Heaven by God after being tricked into questioning his love for humans. Avengelyne was stripped of all her angelic abilities, other than her great strength and her blood, which, once extracted from her body, could be used as a weapon or a miracle once empowered by quoting verses from the Bible. Avengelyne uses her powers to fight demons on Earth and is being groomed to be humankind’s last hope in a coming Armageddon.”
