Terminal trailer sees Margot Robbie tumble into a neo-noir Wonderland

Margot Robbie has mastered control over her own career.

When Hollywood often leaves talented actresses relegated to "supportive wife or girlfriend" roles, the Australian star took the decision to launch her own projects, through her production company LuckyChap Entertainment.

Its first release was I, Tonya, a film which just so happened to land Robbie with an Oscar nomination and her co-star, Allison Janney, with an Oscar win.

Next out of the gate is Terminal, with Robbie back in the lead for a tale drenched in neo-noir style; its first trailer clearly drawing from Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland.

Backing the tagline "tumbling down the rabbit hole", the trailer sees Robbie's impeccably dressed character quote from the Mad Hatter (though taking a line from the 2010 Disney adaptation): "There is a place like no other on earth. A land full of wonder, mystery, and danger. Some say to survive it, you need to be as mad as a hatter. Which luckily, I am."

The film follows a host of unusual characters: two assassins on their latest mission, a teacher battling a terminal illness, an enigmatic janitor, and a waitress leading a dangerous double life. Inevitably, their lives will intertwine.

Terminal is the directorial debut of Vaughn Stein, with Robbie joined by the likes of Dexter Fletcher, Simon Pegg, Max Irons, and Mike Myers.
