Aussie actress Margot Robbie snagged the attention of American audiences in 2013's The Wolf of
Wall Street, playing a character described as "the hottest blonde ever," and transforming
herself into Hollywood's hottest new property.
Robbie is now a genuine A-lister, but what was her life like before arriving in Tinsel
Town?
We've got the scoop!
Country girl
Robbie was a country girl, growing up in the small outback town of Dalby on Australia's
Gold Coast, where the majority of her extended family worked the land as farmers.
The actress told Jetset Magazine that some of her happiest times are "out on the farm
hunting wild pigs or riding around on motorbikes."
She told Vanity Fair,
"People always want to know, 'Did you have kangaroos outside your bedroom window?'
I'm like, 'Yes, but none of my other friends did.'
Or 'Did you have snakes running around?'
And again, 'Yes, in our house, but this isn't an Australian thing.'"
The actress discussed Dalby at length on Jimmy Kimmel, describing the residents of the tightly-knit
rural town as "so sweet."
They're so sweet, in fact, that Robbie was worried about how they'd react to her steamy
breakout performance in The Wolf of Wall Street, saying,
"I don't know if Dalby's going to approve of this movie.
I'm going to follow it up with another one that's a little more appeasing to a small
country town."
Maggot
So maybe "Maggot" isn't exactly the most flattering of nicknames, but that's what Robbie's loving
friends and family called her growing up.
Her close relationship with her mother made headlines in Australia when the actress paid
off the mortgage on her mom's house.
Mom Sarie Kessler said of her daughter,
"I am immensely proud of her.
She is a fine young woman and she is directly focused and she sets goals and achieves them."
Robbie has also maintained a strong bond with her best friends—all 16 of them, saying,
"We're all so tight-knit.
They are still my best friends today.
We've known each other since preschool and we're still the best of friends, so that's
an incredibly special thing.
Everyone always says we've never met a group like you.
It's crazy."
Strained relationships
While her relationship with her mother is strong, Robbie isn't close to her father.
The pair have been estranged since Doug Robbie, who's described by New Idea as "a rich and
powerful property and sugarcane tycoon", reportedly walked out on the family when a young Margot
was barely out of diapers.
Also according to New Idea, the actress refused to let her dad walk her down the aisle on
her wedding day.
When she tied the knot with British director Tom Ackerley, whom she met on the set of the
2015 war drama Suite Française, her mom gave her away.
But not all of the Robbie siblings share Margot's animosity.
Her brother Lachlan posted a picture with their papa, writing, "Might not have the normal
family but you did give an education and help when I needed it."
Sandwich artist
Robbie landed her first job in a local restaurant at 10 years old.
And, as she told Vanity Fair she continued working hard to bankroll her acting career,
saying,
"I've worked three jobs at a time.
I worked in a pharmacy, an office, at a warehouse, did catering.
I was always trying to save up money."
Her last regular-Joe job was in 2007, when she worked as a Subway sandwich artist in
Melbourne, Australia.
She told the mag,
"I was really good at it.
I make a mean Subway.
The trick is to spread everything evenly out and cut it so well that there is never a bad
bite."
She left Subway when she landed a part on the Aussie soap opera Neighbours, but six
months later, the sandwich chain reached out to cast her in a commercial.
She said,
"I got paid like 20 times the amount I ever earned there."
Hustling
Hoping to land a spot on the beloved Aussie soap, Neighbors, Robbie started cold-calling
like crazy.
She told Vanity Fair,
"I called every day, and, eventually, one day, they put me through to Jan Russ, a producer
for Neighbours.
I went in and she was like, 'How old are you?'
'Seventeen.'
And she says, 'We're casting for a 17-year-old girl right now.'"
Within weeks, Robbie was making her debut on the show as motor-mouthed Donna Freedman.
Robbie immediately set her sights on the next big thing, hoping to follow in the footsteps
of Kylie Minogue, Russell Crowe, and the Hemsworth brothers—just a few of the many Aussie actors
who've used Neighbours as a stepping stone for Hollywood.
When she was 18, Robbie told S-Press,
"I've got big, big dreams for the future.
I want to go to LA and be a massive actor over there."
Status: currently slaying it!
Nerd alert
Born in 1990, Robbie lived her teenage years at the height of the Harry Potter phenomenon.
The actress admitted to Jimmy Kimmel she was a "massive Harry Potter nerd" when she was
13 — and she had the photo to prove it.
"I'm clearly really enjoying myself reading Harry Potter."
"I'm wearing glasses, which I didn't actually need"
"I lied to get glasses so I could look like Harry Potter."
A little magic
As a child, Robbie wasn't storming the stage for acting—instead, she was really into
magic.
She shared in Vanity Fair,
"When I was little, I thought I was going to be a magician.
I had tricks and thought they were genius.
I didn't decide, 'I'm going to be an actress.'
I didn't know that was a job.
I thought that only happened to people born in Hollywood."
After finding fame, Robbie got the chance to guest on David Blaine's Beyond Magic and
was rendered speechless when he correctly guessed a random word she'd chosen in her
mind.
"A dunny it's a toilet.
Sitting on the dunny.
Sitting on the toilet."
The actress then got to learn the art of the steal while preparing for 2015's con-artist
flick Focus.
She told The Independent
"That was the first thing that attracted me to [the movie]—I got to learn how to do
actual pick-pocketing…It's so ballsy to actually steal something off someone when
you're looking at them in the eye."
Good looks
Robbie was named "sexiest woman of the year" by FHM in 2016.
According to the men's mag, her work in Suicide Squad, coupled with her "stunning looks and
impeccable talents," put her in "another stratosphere."
It's easy to assume that beauty-based swagger comes naturally to Robbie, but the truth is
that she never felt attractive growing up.
She told Vanity Fair,
"In my big group of girlfriends at home, I am definitely not the best-looking.
I did not grow up feeling like I was particularly attractive.
You should have seen me at 14, with braces and glasses, gangly and doing ballet."
At 16, Robbie said she compensated for her self-esteem issues by slapping on way too
much make-up—something she doesn't feel the need to do anymore, telling Vogue,
"I remember hitting that age and thinking I needed to wear tons of make-up because I
was old enough to wear it.
I think it's a confidence thing, you have your mask on all the time."
One thing's for sure: Robbie doesn't need to wear a mask anymore.
