Margot Robbie Credits Rachel McAdams With All Her Early Career Work: ‘In Thanks to Her’ | Video
Margot Robbie praised Rachel McAdams’ audition tape for The Notebook, revealing that watching it became a ritual before her own auditions.
“I used to watch Rachel McAdams’ audition for ‘The Notebook’ before I would go to auditions … She’s so good, and she’s so charming and real, and like, in it,” Robbie explained during an appearance on BBC Radio 2’s “The Scott Mills Breakfast Show,” where she appeared to promote her upcoming film “Wuthering Heights.”
“I used to watch it before I’d go to an audition, I was like, ‘OK, just try and be as good as her,'” Robbie explained.
When asked if she felt McAdams’ tape helped her book some of her most iconic roles in Hollywood — which include Naomi Lapaglia in “The Wolf of Wall Street” and Barbie in “Barbie” — she didn’t hesitate to say yes.

“Well, technically, you could say any part I got would’ve been in thanks to her, because I was always watching her audition right before,” Robbie said, applauding McAdams’ dedication and authenticity.
“It’s just the commitment. I always watched it to remind me, like, you have to fully commit in the audition room,” Robbie said.
Later, she also reflected on how personable and kind McAdams was when they worked together on the 2013 film “About Time.
“I was absolutely no one back then, and she was so lovely to me and my brother,” Robbie said. “And like, I’ll never forget just how she’d go out of her way to be so kind. I just love her.”
