Margot Robbie's unemployment scare after <i>The Wolf of Wall Street</i>: 'I thought I'd never work again'

Aussie actress Margot Robbie shot to international fame after starring alongside Leonardo DiCaprio in The Wolf of Wall Street in 2013.

But the star has now revealed that an unemployment stint after the film's production had her second guessing her Hollywood career.

"I have many moments of self-doubt," the 24-year-old told Confidential. "Everybody does.

"Even when I came off The Wolf of Wall Street and had three months of unemployment, I thought I'd never work again, which was crazy.

"Everyone has that, whether you're at the top, at the bottom, or right in between, everyone has moments of self-doubt."

The former Neighbours star was honoured today as a breakthrough actor at the Australians in Film Awards in LA, alongside Son of a Gun star Brenton Thwaites.
