When Margot Robbie revealed her poor first impression of Will Smith

  • Margot Robbie and Will Smith are best known to have worked together in Suicide Squad.
  • But it was on the sets of Focus that the two met for the first time.
  • Robbie recalls the time when she was ‘soaking wet’ as she met Will Smith for the auditions.

Margot Robbie is becoming a really famous star this year because her Barbie movie did really well. People are talking a lot about her and the fun things that happened while making the movie. Just like the story of her having a good time with Will Smith while filming Suicide Squad, another story has come out.

This one is about what Will Smith first thought about Margot Robbie when they met, not about the time they spent together. Margot talked about this and shared what she thought of Will Smith when they first met.

The story began when Margot Robbie got a call to try out for a part in the movie Focus. It’s a movie about crime and comedy.

The movie was directed by Glen Ficarra and John Requa. She learned that she would be acting alongside Will Smith, who was already a very famous actor in America back then. What’s interesting is that even though their first meeting could have been not so good, they actually became really good friends.

As time went on, Margot Robbie and Will Smith developed a close friendship that became stronger than their first meeting.

Their chemistry on-screen translated into a genuine companionship off-screen. In her own words, Robbie explained, “I was backpacking for a week with my brother on an island off Croatia. I end up having the craziest 24 hours of my life.”

However, this was the time when she was to go and give the audition. “I’m soaking wet because I’ve been swimming, I get back to the hostel at 6 a.m., no sleep, turn my phone on, and I’ve got all these messages: ‘They want you to audition for Focus. Your flight leaves tonight.”
