In the midst of promoting her first headlining role for I, Tonya, the striking blonde described how her next ambition is to ‘film something back home in Australia’.

‘We have a lot of good things in development, amazing Aussie writers and Aussie directors, and that’s what I am most excited about for 2018: coming home,’ she said.

The actress, who recently celebrated her one-year anniversary with husband and production partner Tom Ackerley, said she was ‘reluctant’ to call LA home.

When asked what she missed most about Australia, she replied: ‘Everything.’

‘Everything, from something as trivial as good coffee or hearing a certain bird – something random that you don’t realise you are going to miss when you go.’

The Gold Coast-raised talent said being away from major family moment ‘sucked’, in addition to her favourite snacks only being available Down Under.

‘Even the small things suck. Like, I miss Burger Rings, I miss Nutri-Grain! I can’t wait to go back,’ she enthused.

Released in Australia on January 25, Margot plays ice skater Tonya Harding in I, Tonya, who was involved in the infamous kneecapping of her rival Nancy Kerrigan.

She reportedly spent six months doing research on the character, which included watching endless videos and ‘listening to her voice’ on her iPod day and night.
