“I would love to work with you”: Margot Robbie, One of World’s Sexiest Women Alive, Did 1 Thing to Star in $377M Leonardo DiCaprio Movie


When talent meets opportunity, dreams come true in Hollywood. At 33, Margot Robbie has established one of the most impressive early careers in film thanks to her leading roles in The Wolf of Wall Street, Suicide Squad, and most recently, Barbie.
The actress, who is renowned for giving spellbinding performances in films like I, Tonya, and Birds of Prey, has always admired Quentin Tarantino’s distinct storytelling approach and his capacity to inspire compelling performances from his actors. Thus, Robbie made the decision to take matters into her own hands after realizing that her desire to appear in Tarantino’s films had turned into more than just a wish.

Robbie has enthralled opposite Leonardo DiCaprio in Quentin Tarantino’s 2019 comedy-drama Once Upon A Time in… Hollywood. But getting the role was not that easy for the actress.
She defied convention and wrote a moving letter to Tarantino at a time when emails and text messages were the primary forms of communication.

Margot Robbie Wrote A Moving Letter To Quentin TarantinoThey say that nothing can stop you from achieving your goals if you want them badly enough. Margot Robbie was aware of the task at hand and put her desire for that Once Upon A Time in… Hollywood role in a letter for director Quentin Tarantino.
The director spoke with her for the Vogue Australia cover story, and they discussed the “happenstance” that led to her being cast. When Robbie’s letter arrived, Tarantino revealed that he was finishing up his script and was incredibly interested in casting her as Sharon Tate.

She stated that although she had long wanted to collaborate with him, she did not feel ready to approach him at the beginning of her career:
“I had wanted to write the letter for years and years and years. Because I’d heard you were going to do 10 movies and I couldn’t bear the thought I would miss the boat and never see what one of your film sets was like: I needed to figure out a way to get on to set. Maybe I could even hold a door in the back of a scene. But at the same time I wasn’t really in the right position to reach out to Quentin Tarantino and say: ‘Hello, my name is Margot and can I come visit your sets?’”

After I, Tonya’s success, the actress admitted that she finally felt brave enough to contact Tarantino, though she was still unsure of how to go about it:
“I remember agonising over everything – the paper, the pen, how I was going to write it – big, small, spaced out. Then, of course, I thought you might not be able to get the letter anyway, so I should stop freaking out so much, and then I just wrote the goddamn thing and prayed that somehow it would get to you, and it did. A couple of weeks later I remember getting the phone call saying: ‘Quentin got your letter and he’d really like to meet up.’”
Margot Robbie Has Always Desired To Work With Quentin Tarantino
Margot Robbie, the star of Barbie, admitted in her 2019 Vogue cover story that she had always wanted to work with Quentin Tarantino but had been holding off until she felt she was good enough as an actor to approach him. She revealed:
“So I wrote him and said, ‘I adore your films, and I would love to work with you in some capacity. Or any capacity.’”
Tarantino explained to in the same interview that he picked Robbie for the role because she
“Looks like Sharon Tate. And she can convey Sharon’s innocence and purity — those qualities are integral to the story.”
The star was eventually cast in Tarantino’s movie Once Upon A Time in… Hollywood, so Robbie’s letter was successful.
Brad Pitt and Leonardo DiCaprio were among the film’s large ensemble cast.
The movie earned $377 million worldwide and was praised by critics for Tarantino’s direction and screenplay, as well as the cast’s performances (especially those of Pitt and DiCaprio). At the 92nd Academy Awards, the movie was nominated for ten different awards, taking home two of them.
Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood is streaming on DIRECTV.

‘I am officially off the market’: When Margot Robbie revealed she made the ‘conscious’ decision of not dating actors


Margot Robbie revealed her decision to not date actors because of the media scrutiny that came with a public relationship of two high-profile actors
Back in 2015, A-lister Margot Robbie made a declaration that she would not be dating any actors. The actress may have alluded to her fiance Tom Ackerley, who she married the following year in 2016. In an exclusive interview with Marie Claire, she revealed that being in a relationship as an actor herself came with its own set of challenges. She believed that dating someone who was popular would add on to the media scrutiny.

Margot Robbie opened up on why she made a conscious decision to not date actorsTalking to Marie Claire, she claimed, “I am officially off the market.” She then shared the reasoning behind her decision and added, “I made a conscious decision not to date actors.” She continued to explain, “But not because I hate actors. That’s a nasty generalization to make, and that’s not the case. People take such an interest in your love life when you have a profile, it puts a lot of stress on a relationship.”
The Barbie actress continued, “So two people with profiles, I figure it’s just double the amount of scrutiny, and I’d like to avoid that at all costs.” This came after reports of her locking lips with Tarzan co-star Alexander Skarsgard started making rounds. It was reported that she was caught kissing the actor during the Sundance Film Festival.

Margot Robbie revealed she opted for a minimal lifestyle even after becoming an actorIn the interview, Robbie also opened up about how she was adapting to fame. She shared, “I have a normal 24-year-old life. If I were a waitress, I’d probably have the exact same lifestyle. I’d go to the same clubs I go to already, live in the same house with the same housemates, hang out with the same people.”
However, Margot Robbie tied the knot with Tom Ackerley who is an English producer and actor. The duo met on the sets of 2013 movie Suite Francaise where Tom was working as an assistant director. Post marriage, both of them launched their production company LuckyChap Entertainment.

‘Rocky’ Was Quite Different In His Original Screenplay, Sylvester Stallone Claims


Sylvester Stallone took his friend’s advice on a rewrite of the original screenplay to Rocky. A few tweaks later, he was on his way to major success.
In the new Netflix documentary Sly, Stallone discussed how he initially conceived of the project, which had a much harder edge. In the early version, Rocky was depicted as a “thuggish” character, inspired by Martin Scorsese’s crime drama, Mean Streets.

But Stallone’s perspective changed when a friend read the script and thought the boxer was too cruel for audiences to actually care about him.
Stallone recalled her crying.

“She goes, ‘I hate Rocky. I hate him. He’s cruel. He hits people. He beats them up.’”
Stallone took it to heart, and asked what he could do to soften the character.

“I said, ‘what if you stop short of it?’ Like, maybe he almost did. He could have, that’s his job, but he doesn’t?’ ‘That’d be nice,’” he added. “I said, ‘What if he had a girlfriend or something?’ ‘Yeah, that’s nice.’ So I go back, start writing that: ‘Girlfriend. Nice.’”
$117 million in box office later, a franchise was born.

Stallone also revealed that actor Dolph Lundgren sent him to the hospital during one fight scene in Rocky IV.
“Dolph Lundgren… he pulverized me,” Stallone says in the documentary. “Later that night, my heart started to swell—which happens when the heart hits the chest—and then my blood pressure went up to 260, and they thought I was going to be talking to angels. Next thing I know, I’m in intensive care, where I’m surrounded by nuns, and I thought, ‘OK, that’s curtains.’”
Stallone was in the hospital for nine days following the incident, praying for “one more round.”
“For the first minute of the fight, it is going to be a free-for-all,” Stallone told Lundgren. The Swedish actor joked in a separate interview that all he did was “obey orders,” explaining, “[Stallone] was the boss. I did what he told me.”
Doctors allegedly told Stallone that he received a blow to the ribs that made his heart rattle around in his ribcage, a condition typically seen in head-on collisions. “I did hit a bus, of sorts,” Stallone joked.
