Has Margot Robbie ever won an Oscar? exploring her surprising awards history

Despite standout performances, Margot Robbie's award season success remains elusive.

Earlier this year, the absence of Margot Robbie's nomination for her role as Barbie in the film of the same name sparked a storm of controversy around the 2024 Oscar nominees. 

Fans and critics alike expressed concern that Robbie's portrayal, though often meta and emotive, was overlooked, possibly due to misogynistic biases within the Academy.

Throughout her career, Robbie has demonstrated a versatile acting range and undeniable on-screen charisma, consistently landing coveted lead roles in Hollywood.

Despite this, come awards season, her performances frequently go unnoticed by prestigious award bodies.

Notably, Robbie's standout performances in films like Damien Chazelle's ‘Babylon’ and the period drama ‘Dreamland’ showcased her ability to elevate challenging material, even when the films themselves failed to meet critical expectations.

However, Robbie has not gone completely unrecognized. 

Her portrayal of Tonya Harding in the 2017 mockumentary ‘I, Tonya’ earned her a well-deserved Oscar nomination for Best Actress, marking a significant milestone in her career. 

Although she did not win, the nomination highlighted her talent and ability to command the screen.

In 2019, Robbie secured her second Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actress for her role in ‘Bombshell’, where she portrayed Kayla Pospisil, a fictional character based on real events involving sexual abuse. Despite the film's shortcomings in deeper storytelling, Robbie's performance was praised for its depth and nuance.

At just 34 years old, with a relatively short but impactful career in Hollywood, Robbie's fans anticipate more Academy Award nominations in her future.

As her body of work continues to grow, there is optimism that she will receive the recognition she deserves on the awards stage.

Fans and critics alike are calling for a reevaluation of award season criteria, hoping for a shift that acknowledges performances based on merit rather than conforming to traditional expectations.
