A year after starring in Barbie, actress Margot Robbie raids the toy chest again

STEVE INSKEEP, HOST:

Good morning. I'm Steve Inskeep. A year after starring in "Barbie," Margot Robbie is raiding the toy chest again, playing with Monopoly money. Her production company announced it will be producing a live-action film based on the classic board game. It's unclear who the star will be, but the bigger question is which biopic about a scientist is it going to be paired with this time? Monoppenheimer (ph) would have been great.
