Margot Robbie Reveals She Has Received Death Threats Since ‘Suicide Squad’

She reveals she has been the target of threats and stalkers since her meteoric rise to fame with the film “Suicide Squad.”

While starring in I, Tonya, a biopic about skater Tonya Harding, Margot Robbie opens up about her meteoric rise in Hollywood. The young actress has been experiencing real fame since the release of Suicide Squad. She had already appeared in several major films, but always in supporting roles. This time, she played the sexy and very charismatic Harley Quinn in a superhero ensemble film. Enough to make her rise to stardom in popular culture. But with the coin comes the downside. And Margot Robbie gives a very pessimistic assessment of her fame. The Australian-born actress explains, in the columns of the Hollywood Reporter , this January 4, that she has become the target of numerous stalkers and has also received death threats.

A disturbing revelation for which the actress would have liked to have been prepared. She confides what she would have liked someone in her cinematic circle to explain to her: “You’re going to be in a film adapted from a comic book. Now, in the worst case scenario: here’s the craziest and scariest thing that can happen, “she begins before elaborating: “There are just all these things that you learn late in life. When you receive these death threats, it would be good to already have a security team to do checks on who is sending them, to know if the person in question has already resorted to violence because we need to know if it is necessary to hire bodyguards to go to certain events.”

Now, Margot Robbie has had to resign herself to employing bodyguards who accompany her on her various trips. A cost she reveals frankly: “Every time you have to investigate the people who send you death threats, it costs you $2,000. So you have to take that into consideration when you embark on such adventures .” Fame comes at a price.
