Resume: Margot Robbie

Despite being one of the biggest female stars on the planet, Margot Robbie has only worked for Last Resort Films a handful of times. She is once again working for the studio in the upcoming spy thriller Crimson, so for this edition of Resume, we will take a look at the filmography of this beautiful A-lister....


















Season 1

The Job
Director: Guy Ritchie
Writer: Ann Morrow


Budget: $46,000,000
Domestic Box Office: $39,946,010
Foreign Box Office: $27,427,828
Total Profit: -$57,964,586



Margot Robbie's first film for LRF came all the way back in Season 1. She played Scott Eastwood's love interest in the box office flop. Her performance, along with the rest of the cast, did not receive good notices from the critics.


Season 2

The Banded Ants

Domestic Box Office: $182,780,009
Foreign Box Office: $201,536,031
Total Profit: $205,423,564


Next Robbie performed the voice of the queen of the ant colony in the first film in The Banded Ants series - one of Last Resort Films' first homegrown franchises. The film was a big hit at the box office and the critics seemed mostly happy with it as well.


Season 6

The Banded Ants 2 - The Mortal Enemy
Director: Guillermo del Toro
Writer: Jack Ryder


Budget: $158,000,000
Domestic Box Office: $191,345,052
Foreign Box Office: $238,436,219
Total Profit: $236,284,287


After a few seasons away, Margot Robbie reprised her voice role as Queen Cruz in the sequel to The Banded Ants. Critics were not very fond of the sequel, criticizing the tone, but it was an even bigger hit at the box office than the first entry.

Season 8

Adr1ft
Director: Alex Garland
Writer: Billy Cruder


Budget: $85,000,000
Domestic Box Office: $75,033,998
Foreign Box Office: $100,123,649
Total Profit: $2,740,835


Margot Robbie finally appeared in another on-screen role for the studio with Adr1ft. The film received mixed reviews from critics due to its derivative story, but Robbie's performance was praised. Robbie earned her first GRA nomination for the film in the Best Actress category.

Season 9

Calamity

Writers: Mo Buck & Chad Taylor


Budget: $80,000,000
Domestic Box Office: $162,433,760
Foreign Box Office: $121,298,551
Total Profit: $89,319,467


The first of Robbie's two films in Season 9 was Spike Jonze's Calamity. The film was a surprise hit at the box office, in large part due to the cast's impressive star power. The film was nominated for nine Golden Reel Awards, winning three: Best Actor (Leonardo DiCaprio), Best Original Story and Robbie herself won Best Supporting Actress.

Life After Life
Director: JJ Abrams
Writers: TFW Hallowayne & Willem Mainwright


Budget: $81,000,000

Foreign Box Office: $109,183,505
Total Profit: -$1,039,227


Robbie's second film in Season 9 was the time-bending historical fantasy, Life After Life. The film was a minor box office disappointment, and only received mixed reviews from the critics. They were, however, complimentary of Robbie's lead performance.


Up Next:
Margot Robbie has the spy movie Crimson about to hit theaters. After that, she only has one film in the works. She is attached to star in a big-budget horror thriller currently set to debut in early Season 16.
