Her role as the outrageously Sєxy Naomi Lapaglia in 2013’s The Wolf Of Wall Street cemented her status as a Sєx symbol.
And Margot Robbie has sensationally claimed that she didn’t think she was ‘H๏τ enough’ for the role and would leave people feeling disappointed with her casting in the critically acclaimed flick alongside Hollywood heavyweight, Leonardo DiCaprio.
Posing for a raunchy shoot for Wonderland magazine, the Australian actress, 27, made the surprising claim about the ‘high-tempo Sєxy’ role as she discussed taking on a completely different character for her upcoming venture, I, Tonya.
Margot, who was well known in Australia for her role in the soap Neighbours before hitting the big time internationally four years ago, proved why she had bagged the role in Wolf Of Wall Street as she sizzled for the pH๏τoshoot.
Sprawled out across the floor and in a variety of chairs in a range of skimpy ensembles, Margot cut a saucy figure as she smouldered for the camera.
With her blonde locks preened to perfection and complementing her piercing blue eyes, the beauty from Down Under looked flawless.
And while she showed off her confidence in front of a camera, Margot astonishingly admitted that she didn’t think she H๏τ enough for her role in The Wolf Of Wall Street.
‘When I was playing Naomi in The Wolf of Wolf Street it was so high-tempo Sєxy. I was acutely aware that the line in the screenplay was “the H๏τtest blonde ever,” I’m clearly not the H๏τtest blonde ever.
‘I was just terrified that people would see the movie and think “eugh! She’s not that great,”‘ she expressed.
However, in comparison, her upcoming role in I, Tonya, was much more low-key, as she explained the difference: ‘the worse I looked the happier people were.’
‘Ironically Tonya wasn’t unattractive, she’s just been marred with that story. Like Daphne, Tonya, right or wrong, is human,’ she continued about the flick which has already on her critical acclaim after it recently premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival.
The movie will explore the real-life rivalry between scandal-ridden Tonya and fellow American skater, Nancy Kerrigan.
Twice an Olympian and famed for her triple axel, Tonya found herself slapped with a lifetime ban from the U.S. Figure Skating Association in 1994.
Her bodyguard and her ex-husband had enlisted a thug to break her skating rival Nancy Kerrigan’s leg, and though he bungled the job, he still bruised Nancy severely enough to force her out of the U.S. Figure Skating Championship.
The next month, both Tonya and Nancy competed in the Winter Olympics in Lillehammer. The former earned eighth place, the latter a silver medal.
Though the three men – as well as the getaway car driver – served time for their involvement in the attack, Tonya pleaded guilty to conspiracy to hinder their prosecution, thereby managing to keep herself out of prison.
Meanwhile, Robbie candidly admitted in the interview that it was ‘frustrating’ at times to have so much emphasis placed on her looks.
‘All the reading, all the acting coaching, and then someone reviews the movie or interviews you and all they do is focus on the aesthetics.
‘You think, “f*** you. You’ve totally discredited the work I did and it’s not fair!’ she pᴀssionately declared.
And her talents as an actress were evident, as she discussed her forthcoming role in I, Tonya, where she also served as a producer.
‘I read the script and thought it was sheer genius. I also presumed it was fiction. When I discovered it was a true story, I knew it was big.
‘We thought long and hard about striking the right tone for this film, and when Craig Gillespie was brought in as the director it just felt so right. There was no one better for the job.
‘Sarah Kawahara, who actually choreographed for Nancy Kerrigan, was training me. Before that point I thought I wasn’t too bad at ice skating – I used to play ice hockey.
‘I soon realised that I’d just been running on ice, and now there was no padding. My alarm would go off at 5.30am and I’d want to cry. Sometimes after sessions I’d get back into the car and weep.’
