Hollywood is a funny place, and things change every day. One moment, you are talking about a movie being made in a certain way, and the next, those reports are completely flipped on their head with unexpected updates. That’s exactly what is happening with Luca Guadagnino’s big-screen adaptation of ‘American Psycho.’<\/p>\n

On October 24, a report from The Sun<\/a> claimed that Margot Robbie will be playing the female version of Patrick Bateman in Guadagnino’s gender-swapped retelling of the story, based on Bret Easton Ellis’s book. The news of Robbie portraying the role of the serial killer spread like wildfire on social media, and people started imagining her as the film’s lead character. However, in a surprising turn of events, it has been revealed that the report was nothing more than a rumor.<\/p>\n

Deadline<\/a> reports that Guadagnino’s adaptation won’t be gender-swapped, and Robbie is reportedly not playing the main role. The recent report comes a few days after it was reported that Guadagnino is trying to flip the narrative and come forward with a fresh perspective. Moreover, the source told the UK tabloid that the ‘I, Tonya’ star is in talks to portray the character. Eventually, it turned out to be just a rumor.<\/p>\n
