Margot Robbie loves an 'underdog story'

The 27-year-old Australian actor next plays the role of former American figure skater Tonya Harding in the Craig Gillespie-directed 'I, Tonya'.

Robbie was asked about the reason which drove her to portray the character of Harding on screen.

"I love gangster films 'cause I love the underdog story. I love watching someone rise up, despite their circumstances," Robbie told Collider.

"It's always something I feel like I can get behind. And she felt like an underdog, to me," she added.
