Shailene Woodley joins Jack Whitehall in Robots

June 21, 2021 by Matt Rodgers

The Descendants and Big Little Lies‘s Shailene Woodley has signed on to star alongside Jungle Cruise‘s Jack Whitehall in Robots, the new comedy from the writer of Borat: Subsequent Moviefilm.

According the The Hollywood Reporter, Anthony Hines, who also worked on Sacha Baron Cohen’s Brüno, will co-direct the film alongside Casper Chrsitensen, who made Klown, the most successful comedy in Danish box-office history.

On that casting news Hines said “At a time when comedies are needed more than ever, I couldn’t be more delighted than to have Shailene and Jack team up to play the leads in this movie”.

Robots will tell the story of how a womaniser and a gold digger learn about humanity when forced to team up and pursue robot doubles of themselves, and is based on a short story by science-fiction writer Robert Sheckley.
