Margot Robbie is one the most talented stars of her generation, and she has been nominated for two Academy Awards, and four Golden Globes.

Across her career, she's played multiple iconic figures in pop culture, starting with her breakout role in The Wolf of Wall Street all the way to 2023's Barbie, in which she plays the titular doll.

The Wolf of Wall Street was based on the 2007 memoir of the same name, written by Belfort about his exploits working as a stockbroker in New York City in the '90s.

I had the choice to meet her or not and I opted to meet her, and I'm really glad I did. It ended up being really helpful, Robbie told IndieWire in 2014. She was really great about it, really understanding, which is a real attribute to how strong she is as a person. She's has to be, to have put up with Jordan and his shenanigans, Robbie continued, She doesn't really have a filter in what she says.

While The Legend of Tarzan wasn't a hit with critics, it made a respectable $356 million at the box office, according to Box Office Mojo.

This 2016 film was another take on the iconic story of Tarzan, an orphan who is raised by apes after his parents died. In Legend of Tarzan, Jane and John, aka Tarzan, have been living amongst the humans for some time.

Jane has been a character for as long as Tarzan has. She made her debut in the 1912 story by Edgar Rice Burroughs, Tarzan of the Apes. This is what she looks like in the 1999 Disney film.

Tarzan and love interest Jane have been in pop culture for over 100 years, and she has been played by over 20 women on film over the course of time, including Enid Markey, Maureen O'Sullivan, Bo Derek, Andie MacDowell, Minnie Driver, Olivia d'Abo, and, of course, Robbie.

For many, Robbie's portrayal as the psychiatrist-turned-henchwoman Harley Quinn is the only thing that worked about 2016's Suicide Squad, even if there was lots of controversy about how scantily clad she was.

Yes, even though Harley is most associated with comic-book characters like Batman and Joker, she actually made her debut in the '90s Batman cartoon Batman: The Animated Series. Harley appeared in the comics soon after, and she has remained a Bat-verse mainstay ever since.

Right now, there are at least three versions of Harley floating around on-screen: Robbie in the DC Extended Universe, Kaley Cuoco voices her in the HBO Max animated series Harley Quinn, and Lady Gaga will be playing Harley in the 2024 sequel to Joker, titled Joker: Folie à Deux.

I, Tonya starred Robbie as the former ice-skating pro, Harding, who was banned from the sport after her then-husband Jeff Gillooly and Shane Stant assaulted fellow skater Nancy Kerrigan.

Robbie was nominated for an Oscar for her role, and Allison Janney won best supporting actress for her performance as Harding's mother, LaVona.

Harding told Robbie, I did not expect you to be so kind and forthcoming with me because I've had so much disrespect in my life. I don't even wish for my worst enemy to have to go through anything that I went through.

Robbie then told Harding, I kept thinking to myself, it's a shame that all of your athletic achievements were overshadowed by what happened in 1994.

Goodbye Christopher Robin followed Milne, his wife, and their son Billy, the inspiration for Christopher Robbin in the Winnie the Pooh books, as Milne struggled to write after coming home from World War I.

As Milne began developing the characters of the Hundred Acre Wood, Billy became closer with his nanny while his mother was a bit more distant.

Is Casting Margot Robbie As Barbie A Regressive Move?

It was really interesting to learn that part of the reason [Winnie the Pooh] was so popular was that it came at a time when the country and the world were hurt from the war. After World War I, everyone felt robbed of their innocence. It gave a little bit of that back, Robbie told Entertainment Weekly in September 2017.

You could open these books up, and there was this beautiful, simple, happy life that you could be transported to. People needed that at the time — and probably need it still today, she continued.

The real Daphne lived from 1890 to 1971, outliving her husband by 15 years. Towards the end of her life, she was estranged from her son, the real Christopher Robin, who felt his childhood had been taken away from him due to the fame brought on by Winnie the Pooh and his friends.
