Margot Robbie is returning to the big screen!
A Big Bold Beautiful Journey, starring Robbie and Colin Farrell, is in theaters Sept. 19. Sony Pictures released the trailer for the pair’s upcoming movie, which marks Robbie’s first big screen role since she starred in the 2023 smash hit Barbie, and features her and Farrell, 49, taking a wild journey through each other’s lives and memories after they meet at a wedding.
The pair, who play Sarah and David, are brought together further when David’s car GPS instructs him to pick up Sarah and invites the characters to take part in the movie’s titular big bold beautiful journey.
“What if you could open a doorway and walk through it to re-live a defining moment from your past?” reads an official synopsis for the movie. “Sarah and David are single strangers who meet at a mutual friend’s wedding and soon, through a surprising twist of fate, find themselves on A Big Bold Beautiful Journey – a funny, fantastical, sweeping adventure together where they get to re-live important moments from their respective pasts, illuminating how they got to where they are in the present…and possibly getting a chance to alter their futures.”

A Big Bold Beautiful Journey comes from After Yang director Kogonada and The Menu screenwriter Seth Reiss. It also stars Jodie Turner-Smith, Phoebe Waller-Bridge, Billy Magnussen, Lily Rabe and Hamish Linklater.
Robbie was spotted on the movie’s set in April 2024. The Oscar nominee and her husband and Barbie producing partner Tom Ackerley then welcomed their first baby together in November; she has remained largely out of the spotlight since.

A source told PEOPLE last July that Robbie “was super professional and focused” making A Big Bold Beautiful Journey. “No one suspected that she was pregnant… She got along with Colin, and they had fun filming.”
Also among Robbie’s upcoming projects are Emerald Fennell’s adaptation of Wuthering Heights costarring Jacob Elordi and an Ocean’s Eleven film. Farrell will also next star in The Ballad of a Small Player and the planned sequel to the 2022 Robert Pattinson-starring The Batman.
