Margot Robbie reveals psychological trauma of filming 'I, Tonya'
Margot Robbie has told magazines that she was so immersed in playing banned figure skater Tonya Harding that she genuinely thought she was the character for several moments off-camera.
Her latest film, I, Tonya, documents the rise and fall of the United States figure skater Tonya Harding, who pleaded guilty to hindering the prosecution following an attack on her fellow skater Nancy Kerrigan, organised by her then-husband Jeff Gillooly, which became an international scandal.
She was banned for life from participating in United States Figure Skating Association-run events as either a skater or a coach.
Margot Robbie, the Australian actor who rose to international fame for her portrayal of Naomi Lapaglia in the 2013 Martin Scorcese film The Wolf of Wall Street, recently spoke of her immersion into Harding's character, as well as the relationship Harding had with her husband.
