Margot Robbie to produce a live-action adaptation of the horror Stagtown 

Margot Robbie is all set to be behind another toon-to-screen adaptation after the mega success of Barbie and upcoming projects featuring Sims and Monopoly. The actress' production house Lucky Chap will be producing a live-action adaptation of the horror webtoon Stagtown.

Lucky Chap will be partnering with Wattpad Webtoon Studios for the project. Stagtown has been one of the most successful webtoons from the studio and has garnered over 100 million views.

Wattpad Webtoon Studios executive Jason Goldberg talked about the project and stated,

"Punko's Stagtown has captured the obsession of the internet with its imaginative horrors and addictive mystery. We're beyond thrilled to partner with LuckyChap, who tackle adaptations with singular filmmakers and undeniably bold ambition. We also couldn't be more excited to bring the scares of Stagtown to life with Benjamin Brewer, an artist with an ingenious take on the source material that will make a generation-defining horror movie."

Stagtown will be written and directed by Benjamin Brewer, who previously worked on the Oscar-winning movie Everything Everywhere All at Once. He is also known for being a music director.

The official synopsis for Stagtown reads,

“Beloved by fans for its nightmare-inducing plot and eerie artwork, the film will follow Frankie, Jeremy, and Felix as they discover something is terribly wrong in the town of Stagtown and attempt to escape the horrors that the residents spend every day ignoring,”

More on Stagtown

The eerie webtoon has gained recognition for its unsettling portrayal of horrors in the town of Stagtown. It follows Frankie, Jeremy, and Felix as they navigate through the horrors while attempting to keep safe.

Situated in the mountains, strange things occur in Stagtown, but the folks turn a blind eye to everything. As Frankie returns from college to be back in her hometown, she starts discovering all the town's secrets and the horrors within.

The webtoon features chilling graphics and is known for being one of the scariest webtoons for its plot and imagery. It will certainly be interesting to witness what Robbie's production house has in store for fans of the toon and how they'll fathom it on screens.

The synopsis of the toon reads,

"Something is wrong with the town Frankie grew up in. Hidden away from the world on the other side of an old stone bridge, the people of Stagtown spend every day trying not to see the strange things that go on around them."
