Advanced Imaging (JAI) Image I/O Tools are not installed This time, 10 years ago, Margot Robbie was carving out a place as one of Australia’s favourite soap stars, thanks to her Logie nominated role in Neighbours.

Fast forward a decade, and the whole world wants a piece of her. The 29-year-old’s been nominated for an Oscar (for playing disgraced figure skater Tonya Harding in the critically acclaimed I, Tonya), made Time magazine’s 100 Most Influential People list and even started her own award-winning production company!

Now, of course, Margot’s starring alongside Leonardo DiCaprio and Brad Pitt in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, and winning rave reviews for her sensitive portrayal of murdered actress Sharon Tate.

But, of course, easygoing Margot is taking it all in her stride. ‘I can’t tell you how surreal it was looking around and being like, “Oh my gosh… there’s Leo. And Brad. And there’s Dakota Fanning,”’ Margot said of her first table read of the film. ‘So many people I never dreamed I’d get to work with – let alone in an ensemble!’
