Margot Robbie Reveals How Playing Sharon Tate Changed How She Viewed the Late Actress

Margot Robbie stuns on the cover of Australian publication Stellar Magazine‘s latest issue.

Here is what the 29-year-old actress had to share with the mag:

On starring in Once Upon A Time In… Hollywood: “I feel like I’m as excited as everyone else [for its release]. I can’t tell you how surreal it was, looking around and being like, ‘Oh my gosh… there’s Leo. And Brad. And there’s Dakota Fanning.’ So many people I never dreamed I’d get to work with, let alone in an ensemble. There is wild anticipation around it.”

On working with Quentin Tarantino: “There is no hierarchy. It felt like family or old friends. It doesn’t matter if it’s a PA or a script advisor he’s worked with since the beginning, Quentin laughs and jokes and hangs out with everyone the same. You can make mistakes and try things, and you’re not going to get in trouble, which is really fun.”

On playing the late actress Sharon Tate: “Before this, any time I heard the name Sharon Tate, I immediately thought of her death. I didn’t think about her life. And then it became all I thought about how to inject this character with as much life and heartbeat as I possibly could. I wanted to bring the best parts of myself forward, and convey all of the characteristics that people mentioned when they talked about her – being angelic, or generous, or kind, or wonderful. It feels so derivative to associate someone who lived so much life with such a gruesome and horrible end.”
