Margot Robbie to Star in Comedy THE TALIBAN SHUFFLE

After her breakout role in "the Wolf of Wall Street" and her recent casting in DC Comics' "Suicide Squad", Robbie Margot is now in talks to star in the comedy "The Taliban Shuffle". Based on journalist Kim Barker's memoir, the film will focus on Barker's experiences in Kabul, including "filing stories about militants, being a woman in wartime Iraq and Pakistan and dealing with boredom interspersed with dashes of violence and the promiscuous war-correspondent culture". The role of Barker will be played by Tina Fey and Robbie will star as a "blond, gorgeous and hard-core on-air news anchor who befriends Baker in Afghanistan". "The Taliban Shuffle" will be directed by Glenn Ficarra and John Requa ("Crazy, Stupid, Love")
