For a Queenslander who got her big break on Neighbours, Margot Robbie has come a long way.

But if you ever get the opportunity to interview her, thereโ€™s one thing she doesnโ€™t want to discuss, and it has nothing to do with her career.

In a chat with the Radio Times, the 28-year-old actress opened up about her frustrations when people, even complete strangers, ask her when sheโ€™ll become a mum.

โ€œIt made me really angry,โ€ the Mary Queen Of Scots star said.

โ€œHow dare some old guy dictate what I can and canโ€™t do when it comes to motherhood or my own body?โ€

Margot married British film director Tom Ackerley, 29, in December 2016 in the stunning hinterlands of Ewingsdale, Byron Bay. The couple may have made things official and arenโ€™t technically newlyweds anymore, but Margot has had enough of baby talk.

โ€œI got married and the first question in almost every interview is, โ€˜Babies? When are you having one?'โ€ she added.

โ€œIโ€™m so angry that thereโ€™s this social contract. Youโ€™re married, now have a baby. Donโ€™t presume. Iโ€™ll do what Iโ€™m going to do.โ€

Despite this, the Hollywood star has previously mentioned that she one day hopes to have a family of her own. And it seems Margot will always be an Aussie at heart and wants to raise her children in her home country.

โ€œTheyโ€™ll be here. The kids will be in Australia,โ€ she explained during a chat with her mum and Project host Carrie Bickmore.

But as one of Hollywoodโ€™s rising stars, we doubt Margot has time to worry about kids these days.

The former Neighbours actress is currently on the press tour for her latest flick Mary Queen Of Scots in which she plays the Virgin Queen Elizabeth I against Saorise Ronan who plays the titular character.

Sheโ€™s also signed on to play the iconic titular role in the upcoming live-action Barbie movie.

โ€œIโ€™m so honoured to take on this role and produce a film that I believe will have a tremendously positive impact on children and audiences worldwide. I canโ€™t imagine better partners than Warner Bros and Mattel to bring this film to the big screen,โ€ the blonde bombshell said in a statement.

Later this year, Margot will be adding more to her CV when she appears as Sharon Tate in Quentin Tarantinoโ€™s Once Upon a Time in Hollywood and returns as Harley Quinn in Suicide Squad spin-offs Birds of Prey and Gotham City Sirens.
