Margot Robbie transforms into Queen Elizabeth I

She was propelled to superstardom four years ago when she played Leonardo DiCaprio’s seductive wife in the  Wolf of Wall Street.

But Margot Robbie was unrecognisable from her usual polished self as she showcased a jaw-dropping new look while filming Mary Queen of Scots in London this week.

Gone were the bombshell’s trademark platinum locks and polished make-up and in their place were a balding head dotted with fiery tresses and a pockmarked blotchy complexion as she took on the role of Elizabeth I.

The Australian star, 27, was the spitting image of the Virgin Queen as she donned traditional Tudor garb including a corset, jacket and wide buckled skirt to get into character for her new role.

The former Neighbours star even appeared to have had a severe, prosthetic nose applied.

Starring alongside David Tennant and Joe Alwyn, Margot will follow in the footsteps of the likes of Bette Davis and Judi Dench who both took on the role of the Tudor queen during their careers. 

Helen Mirren, Miranda Richardson and Cate Blanchett have also tried their hands at becoming the troubled ruler.

Last year the star, who was voted Esquire’s Sexiest Woman Alive for 2017, married film director Tom Ackerley 27.

After meeting on the set of war drama Suite Française, the pair lived together in a house share in Clapham before moving to Shepherd’s Bush.

In an interview with Vogue last year, Miss Robbie said her husband was ‘the best-looking guy in London’. 

Speaking about how they got together, she said: ‘We were friends for so long. I was always in love with him, but I thought, “Oh, he would never love me back. Don’t make it weird, Margot. Don’t be stupid and tell him that you like him”,’ she said.

‘And then it happened, and I was like, “Of course we’re together. This makes so much sense, the way nothing has ever made sense before”.’
