Margot Robbie has
been married to husband Tom Ackerley for two years, but she has said
she's in no rush to have a family.
The actress
has hit out at the constant questions about when she'll have a baby, insisting
she has no patience for such 'social contracts'.
Speaking to
the Radio Times ahead of her upcoming movie Mary Queen of Scots, Margot
declared 'I'll do what I'm going to do.'
The Oscar
nominated actress explained: ‘I’m so angry there’s this social contract. You’re
married, now have a baby. Don’t presume. I’ll do what I’m going to do.’
Margot, who
plays Elizabeth I in her new big screen period drama, said pressures placed on
the monarch to produce an heir angered her during filming. ‘How dare some old
guy dictate what I can and can’t do when it comes to motherhood,’ she said.
She said:
‘I wasn’t seeing many scripts where I wanted to play the female role… The
female roles are always a catalyst for the male story, and that’s unsatisfying.
So I was like, “Well, we’ll start making our own films, because we can’t just
sit around for ever and wait for them to come along.”’
LuckyChap
Entertainment, which Margot runs with her husband, produced Margot's acclaimed
I, Tonya and is currently working on a new TV show about the Second World
War’s female codebreakers.
