I know Margot Robbie mainly from "Neighbours (1985-)". She played the lovely Donna and it was heartbreaking when she left the show. Donna went to America to become a fashion designer and Margot left for Hollywood and became a successful actress.

Fans of superheroes and villains know her as Harley Quinn. What a contrast: fom a sweet girl to an insane, supervillain.
Indeed, who would have thought that.

And she was also a queen. What next?

She has been nominated for two Academy Awards. Will she ever win one?

Sounds like Margo in I Tonya

@znexyish You should have seen her as the ruthless Queen Elizabeth I: "Off with her head!"

I did see that. Mary Queen of Scots. Came out the same year as The Favorite another contemporary update on the royalty flick.

Yes! She's built a terrific body of work (and, no, my comment is no double entendre or of any puerile intent, I'm talking about her resume as a professional from the point of view of an adult, not from that of a pubescent who can't control hormonal obsessions with sex. So, for any who are determined to take this comment in that direction, know now that I'll be ignoring it and will not waste any of my time even acknowledging any such diversion).

I am a fan, she's got my respect.

She may win for Best Supporting Actor this weekend, let's see!

Didn't happen. Ah well, doesn't diminish her work.

You have to be nominated BEFORE you can win.

I was surprised she didn't even get nominated. Was the field that packed this year? (I mean, I don't really pay attention to these award shows anyway, so I've no idea how/why it works as it does, or whether the way it works is good or bad or needs to change or is fine).

The only nomination she could have received this year would have been for Best Actress for her role as Nellie LaRoy in " Babylon (2022)".

For that award there was a long list of names to choose from and she didn't make the last five to be nominated: Cate Blanchett, Michelle Yeoh, Andrea Riseborough, Ana De Armas and Michelle Williams.

Robbie showed off a terrific body in The Wolf of Wall Street, also.
