Margot Robbie admits that she didn’t really know who co-star Will Smith was when they first met!
Australian Actress Margot Robbie has admitted to news.com.au that she wasn’t entirely sure who Will Smith was when she first met him to film their new movie Focus.
She said she was a little ‘out-of-the-loop’ because she hadn’t grown up watching the show that made him famous – The Fresh Prince of Bel Air.
‘I hadn’t seen The Fresh Prince of Bel Air so he had to clarify who Jazzy Jeff was, but I get it now,’ she confessed.
Margot also admitted that she almost missed out on the audition. She got the call when she was backpacking around Croatia and Margot had two days to race to New York, although she made it just in time her luggage was lost and she turned up to the audition absolutely ‘filthy.’
Unaware of her situation, Will Smith revealed his first thoughts on the former Neighbours star.
‘My first thing was, oh, she doesn’t want this job. She comes in, hair everywhere, no make-up and just a bit of a mess. Then she started performing, and blew us all away,’ he said.
