Margot Robbie, known for her portrayal of Harley Quinn and Barbie, shared a funny yet embarrassing audition mishap during her recent interview. The actress admitted that she still gets terrified of auditions, which is mainly because of a pain-killing drug that went rogue. The day she was high on painkillers, she had to audition for a role that she really wanted to play, but things did not go as planned. She accidentally took two painkillers instead of one, and when she arrived at the audition, she realized she was high. She spent the entire time curling up on the couch and bungled the audition.

Margot Robbie also talked about her love for playing Harley Quinn, a role that is very dear to her. She admitted that she misses the character when she’s not playing her and that playing Quinn sometimes takes over, and she goes on autopilot. Her latest portrayal of Harley Quinn was in the 2021 movie The Suicide Squad, directed by James Gunn. It is yet to be confirmed if she will return to the iconic role due to the changes in the DCU.

Although Margot Robbie did not get the role she wanted, she had quite a story to tell about her audition. Her fans can only hope to see her again as Harley Quinn in future movies.
