Margot Robbie Reflected on Her Journey in Hollywood

Robbie shared,
“I have always been fascinated by the movies. Once I graduated from high school, my parents forced me to study law. They wanted me to become a lawyer! I was very capable, and I think I could have worked wonders in a courtroom. But I couldn’t see myself pursuing a career in law. So I dropped everything and had just one goal: to travel. The ultimate goal of my journey was to unpack my bags in Hollywood and stay there. But to do that, you had to earn a living.”
She continued,
“I worked in a surf shop for two years. I then worked as a babysitter and made sandwiches for Subway. What else? Oh yes, I worked in a grocery shop, then a pharmacy. Then I was a waitress and a cleaner. But don’t think; that I came to the United States without any artistic training. I learned the business from coaches for two years. I had to get rid of my Australian accent, Crocodile Dundee-style. In short, there was a lot going on!”

Margot Robbie Reveals Brendan Fraser’s Movie Inspired Her To Become an Actress
Margot Robbie is one of the famously recognizable figures in Hollywood, but the actress claims that Brendan Fraser’s movie inspired her to become an actress. She told Blush magazine,
“I would love to say: Hiroshima mon amour, In the Realm of the Senses or 2001: A Space Odyssey, but that’s not the case! The first film that got me interested in this business was George of the Jungle with Brendan Fraser. Don’t ask me why but I loved that film.”
Robbie revealed that her parents were unsure about her pursuing an acting profession, but they were happy when they noticed her banner on a skyscraper in Times Square in New York.
The Legend of Tarzan star shared,
“My parents didn’t see it coming. When I started expressing this desire to perform, they thought it would be a hobby. Something that wouldn’t last. As time went on, they realized that I was super-determined and that there was no way I would be twiddling my thumbs in Hollywood. I think the day they really knew I had become a professional actress was when I showed them a huge poster of me on a skyscraper in Times Square in New York. They were very proud.”
The Wolf of Wall Street actress has worked with enough A-list stars in Hollywood, like Leonardo Di Caprio, Brad Pitt, Will Smith, Charlize Theron, and Nicole Kidman. Margot Robbie is an extraordinary Australian actress and producer, who is undoubtedly ruling the box office with her incredible screen presence.
