Margot Robbie has always been admired for her bold choice of roles. She started her career with the Australian soap opera Neighbors in 2008. She got her first breakthrough in The Wolf of Wall Street by Martin Scorsese and after that, there was no turning back. Furthermore, her role as Harley Quinn in Suicide Squad became a symbol of her versatility.
Most recently she portrayed her most iconic Barbie role opposite Ryan Gosling. But as it is said, failure is the way to success; Robbie failed as well to secure her role in the American Horror Story earlier in her career.
Margot Robbie auditioned for American Horror Story: Asylum in 2011 but was rejected for the role. Despite being rejected, her audition will always be one of the favorites of the Casting Director Eric Dawson. He always knew that Margot Robbie was a star looking back at her audition.
Margot Robbie had a “Crazy ” Good Audition for American Horror Story
During an interview with Backstage’s In the Envelope: The Actor’s podcast, Eric Dawson revealed his experience of coming across one of the iconic auditions of Margot Robbie for the role of the American Horror Story. He was amazed by her star appeal and called her audition pleasant to the eyes.
“Margot has a lot of ‘it’ factors. That’s the tough thing for casting directors who aren’t in the room [anymore] with actors. Margot is probably one of my favorites auditions of all time, and it was right before she broke out. She was such a star. It was crazy, her star appeal when she walked into the room. Even though she didn’t get that role, that was one of those things as a casting director where you go: This is a star, what do we do with her? Immediately, though, she was out of our realm of the possibility of hiring. But that’s the fun part of casting, is seeing the people whose careers are just rising.”
Later on, Eric Dawson expressed that Margot Robbie has a lot of “it” factor and was a rising star back then.
