I was really dramatic. Not into throwing tantrums, pulling my hair… well not much, but I loved putting on shows, there was always a show at my house. She was obsessed with movies with anything on TV and what she saw, she recreated for my mom, who had enough on her plate running a house, taking care of four kids and I was teasing her, ‘Mom. .. mom check out my new show.
She would even make my family pay to watch my shows. Well, specifically my magic shows. Really. I invented a lot of magic tricks, well, they weren’t bad for a six year old. And then make them all pay me to watch me do these tricks. And I’d make them pay double if they wanted to know how I did the tricks .

Robbie made her film debut in Richard Curtis’ romantic comedy About Time (2013), co-starring Domhnall Gleeson and Rachel McAdams. The film tells the story of a young man with the ability to travel through time who tries to change his past in hopes of improving his future.
To play Gleeson’s unattainable teenage love interest, she was adapting a British accent. The film was a modest critical and commercial success, with a Variety reviewer praising the cast, while also criticizing the common characters for being too familiar.
Robbie’s breakthrough came the same year with the role of Naomi Lapaglia, the wife of leading man Jordan Belfort in the Martin Scorsese biographical black comedy The Wolf of Wall Street .
Co-starring Leonardo DiCaprio as Belfort, the film recounts his perspective on his career as a stockbroker in New York City and how his firm became involved in rampant corruption and fraud on Wall Street, leading to its downfall. At her audition for the film, she improvised a slap at DiCaprio during a fight scene that ultimately landed her the part.
The film and her performance received positive reviews; The actress was especially praised for her on-screen Brooklyn accent. Reviewer Sasha Stone wrote of Robbie’s performance: “She is Scorsese’s best blonde bombshell discovery since Cathy Moriarty in Raging Bull . She is funny, tough, and kills every scene he’s in.”

The company was founded in 2014 and its name was inspired by Charlie Chaplin.

In the year, she took on the role of Jane Porter in David Yates’ adventure film The Legend of Tarzan.
She was adamant about not losing weight and making sure the role wasn’t a damsel in distress like in previous Tarzan adaptations, commenting, “I definitely didn’t want her to be a damsel in distress, and I just wanted her to actively find a way out of it.” I didn’t want her to be sitting around waiting for someone to come save her, but also, in the meantime, to fix the problem herself.”
Reviews for the film were generally unfavorable, but Manohla Dargis of The New York Timescredited Robbie for “holding his own” in his supporting role alongside the all-male cast with Alexander Skarsgård and Samuel L. Jackson.
Dargis further praised the film, writing, “Which makes it more enjoyable than many recycled stories from this kind is that the filmmakers was giving Tarzan a thoughtful, flawed makeover.”

In October 2016, she was hosting the 42nd season premiere of NBC’s late-night sketch comedy Saturday Night Live and her appearances was including a parody of Ivanka Trump. The series recorded its strongest season premiere ratings in eight years.
