Margot Robbie is a beautiful woman, but she is also a seriously talented actress, and her recent performances have reflected this. Despite the Barbie actress continuing to land roles in the entertainment industry because of her skills, there has also been an alleged fascination with her appearance.
In a new report from Life & Style, the actress is reportedly taking big steps in her career to be better known for her skills than her beauty. And she allegedly has the full support of her husband, Tom Ackerly. “This post-Barbie phase for Margot and Tom has been fascinating to watch up close because of how they are completely recalibrating Margot’s image and decision-making together, as a team, with clear goals in mind,” a source told the outlet. “The next step for Margot as a producer and a star is to truly headline a big movie and not lean on a male costar whatsoever.”
Margot Robbie takes on new and exciting roles
The insider claims Robbie wants to be the star of the films she works in (some fans will note that she has already landed the lead in several movies) and that she is taking a different and unexpected direction with her future projects. “Basically, Margot is going into full Leonardo DiCaprio mode, where she will carry the entire movie on her back and, hopefully, come up with a winner,” the insider claims.
Among her future projects is the upcoming film A Big Bold Beautiful Journey, and Robbie’s work on it was mentioned by the insider. In the film, set for release in 2015, she acts alongside Colin Farrell.
“Colin Farrell is in that movie with her, but Margot is THE star, and it’s her movie,” the source claims. “As a couple, they are moving away, decisively, from the ‘sex kitten’ identity Margot sometimes embraces and morphing her into a serious actress who can take on all the responsibility of a movie’s success for herself.”
Regardless of the direction Margot Robbie takes in her career and the future roles she lands, it’s clear that her star is on the rise. Fans can expect to see a lot more of her.
