I was absolutely obsessed with the Titanic - not the film, the actual boat. I'd draw diagrams about it and theorise that if it was built in a different way, it wouldn't have sunk.
It's fascinating to see how versatile New York City is. It lends itself to being so many different places!
The two things I've been told most often since my career took off - by taxi drivers, lifelong friends and everyone in between - have been, 'Don't ever change, Margot' and 'You can't do that anymore, Margot.'
I kind of feel like every time I do a film, it is me and an entire male ensemble cast.
I really want to do a Western. I want to be the dude who is riding horses and doing exciting things - something where I get to do something physical and have to train for it. I don't want to be the damsel.
If I looked good in 'Wolf of Wall Street,' I cannot take full credit; it was because of the hair extensions and makeup.
I'm not extravagant. I share my house in London with five roommates. I take the Tube. I intend to stay the exact same person I always was.
I won't take parts where the female character has no substance.
It's just terrible: I miss flights all the time, more than I probably catch one.
The most frustrating thing is picking up a script and loving the roles in it except the female ones... It's really annoying and something I've striven to change in the industry.
Playing a bad guy is always more fun than playing the good guy.
I gravitate towards monochromes. I always sort of either wear white or black or cream. I really like wearing colorful things as well, but I'm a sucker for cream-colored.
I have an irrational fear that I'm going to have a gruesome and untimely death because so many wonderful things are happening to me.
Ironically, I don't like having cameras in my face.
It irritates me so much the way people talk about soaps because it is far more difficult working on a soap than it is on a big studio film.
My jet lag is getting a bit ridiculous. But, you know, it's first-world problems. It's a wonderful problem, 'Oh I have to travel around the world; how awful.'
People take such an interest in your love life when you have a profile; it puts a lot of stress on a relationship.
All your mannerisms change easily when you have inch-long acrylic nails.
People don't really know about 'Neighbours' in America, and if they have heard of it, it's only in the context of 'Oh, sure, that's what Guy Pearce was on', or Kylie Minogue.
I kind of like pony tails, beards, maybe a tattoo. My massive obsession - I'm really targeting a niche market here - a hair lip.
