As a kid in Australia, Margot Robbie knows she wants to be a movie star, but doesn’t think it’s possible. But after wowing audiences with her star turn (and convincing Brooklyn accent) in Martin Scorsese’s “The Wolf of Wall Street,” the Aussie is well on her way. And she flips her own script by developing material for herself, like 2017's “I, Tonya,” which scores her an Oscar nomination. And Margot doesn’t stop there. She decides to tackle a project that’s so iffy it’s already been passed over by some of Hollywood’s biggest leading ladies. She develops, produces and stars in “Barbie.” It’s a smash and cultural phenomenon that cements Margot’s place at the top of the Hollywood food chain. We’re just Margot girls living in a Margot world!
