Before becoming a Hollywood powerhouse, Margot Robbie's life was anything but ordinary. The 35-year-old actress, known for her roles in 'Suicide Squad' and 'Barbie', began her journey in Dalby, Australia, where she attended circus school at age eight, learning trapeze and earning a certificate for her aerial skills.
Robbie's early career included a stint as a 'sandwich artist' at Subway in Melbourne, a job she left shortly before filming a commercial for the chain. Her determination to succeed saw her writing letters to casting directors, a tactic that helped her land roles on Australian soap 'Neighbours' and eventually in Hollywood.
Off-screen, Robbie's quirks include giving cast and crew tattoos on the set of 'Suicide Squad' with her own tattoo gun, which she later retired. She once won a spaghetti bolognese eating contest, and is a passionate ice hockey fan, even joining an amateur league in the US.
Robbie's childhood in Queensland was filled with animals, and she still keeps a toy called Bunny in her bed, much to her husband's dismay. As her latest film 'Wuthering Heights' hits cinemas, her journey from circus school to global fame remains a testament to her unique spirit.
