She’s one of Australia’s most successful actresses, boasting a glittering Hollywood career, a powerhouse production company and a successful gin brand.

But Margot Robbie wasn’t always such an overachiever, if her high school teacher is to be believed.

During Tuesday’s broadcast of 2Day FM’s Hughesy, Ed & Erin, comedian David ‘Hughesy’ Hughes claimed he’d recently run into to a woman who taught Margot  at Somerset College in Mudgeeraba, Queensland.

She knew Margot Robbie all the way through high school. I said, ‘What was she like?’… She said, ‘Margot Robbie, at school, was unremarkable,” Hughesy claimed.

‘She wasn’t the cool girl, she wasn’t the lead in the plays,’ he continued.

She was just another girl at school. She said [Margot] was certainly not unpleasant. A nice person. But no one knew what was going to happen [with her career].’

A year after graduating, Margot landed a role on Australian soap Neighbours, joining illustrious alumni such as Russell Crowe, Guy Pearce and Kylie Minogue.

‘I owe so much to Neighbours. There are so many of us that owe them for giving us a big break,’ Margot previously told The Sun.

‘It wasn’t just about giving me a break either — it gave me a real chance to work on my craft. It was the perfect training for Hollywood, and I will always be eternally grateful.’

Her big Hollywood break came in 2013 when she landed a role in The Wolf of Wall Street.

She went on to star in a string of blockbusters including Suicide Squad, Focus, The Legend Of Tarzan, Bombshell and most recently, Barbie.

Margot and her husband Tom Ackerley also established their own production company LuckyChap Entertainment in 2019.
