Introducing Margot Robbie
實力與外型兼具的瑪格．羅比

There is much to admire about 29-year-old Margot Robbie. Since arriving in Hollywood from her native Australia 10 years ago, she has been in two dozen movies and is one of the best actresses in Hollywood today. She also founded her own production company and, in 2017, made Time magazine’s list of the 100 most influential people in the world. So what is Robbie’s secret to success? Though her talent is a key factor, it’s her drive and her contributions to reshaping Hollywood for women that have made her stand out.

As an actress, Robbie is extremely versatile. In her breakthrough role, she starred as the tough, Brooklyn-accented Naomi LaPaglia in The Wolf of Wall Street, clearly outshining her male costar, Leonardo DiCaprio. Robbie went on to play a wide range of other characters, including Jane Porter, Tarzan’s love interest in The Legend of Tarzan, and Harley Quinn, a crazy, roller-skating psychiatrist, in Suicide Squad.
But it wasn’t until 2017, when Robbie played the real-life figure skater Tonya Harding in I, Tonya, that her acting won the hearts of everyone. The movie, which Robbie also produced, earned her an Academy Award nomination for Best Actress.

二十九歲的瑪格．羅比有許多值得欽佩之處。自從十年前從家鄉澳洲來到好萊塢後，她已經演出了二十多部電影，是當今好萊塢最優秀的女演員之一。她還創立了自己的製作公司，並在二○一七年成為《時代》雜誌全球百大最具影響力人物。所以羅比成功的祕訣是什麼？雖然她的才華是主要的因素，但讓她脫穎而出的正是她的衝勁以及重塑好萊塢女性形象的貢獻。

作為一名演員，羅比非常多才多藝。在她的突破性角色中，她在《華爾街之狼》裡飾演了粗暴、帶有布魯克林口音的娜歐蜜．拉帕格利亞，顯然比聯袂主演的男星李奧納多．狄卡皮歐還要出色。羅比繼續飾演其他各式各樣的角色，包括珍．波特（《泰山傳奇》中泰山的戀愛對象）以及《自殺突擊隊》裡的哈莉．奎茵（一名瘋狂、穿著溜冰鞋的精神科醫師）。
但直到二○一七年羅比在《老娘叫譚雅》中飾演真實生活中的花式溜冰選手譚雅．哈丁，她的演技才擄獲了大家的心。這部羅比也參與製作的電影為她贏得了奧斯卡最佳女主角的提名。
