Margot Robbie: No technique to really feel unhappy

But it’s been an incredible year for all the films.” She stated she is “past ecstatic” with the eight Oscar nominations fetched by her movie.

Margot Robbie on Oscar nominations

“Everyone getting the nods that they’ve had is just incredible, and the best picture nod. We set out to do something that would shift culture, affect culture, just make some sort of impact. And it’s already done that and some, way more than we ever dreamed it would. And that is truly the biggest reward that could come out of all of this. People’s reactions to the movie have been the biggest reward of this entire experience. Whether it’s seeing what people are writing online, or even just seeing how much pink I can see in this room right now…I’ve never been a part of something like this. Not like this. I’ve done comic book stuff and that gets a big reaction, but this felt very different. It still feels very different. And I can’t think of a time when a movie’s had this effect on culture. And it’s amazing to be in the eye of the storm,” Margot added.

Barbie is produced by Margot alongside LuckyChap’s Tom Ackerley and Mattel’s Robbie Brenner and David Heyman.
