Why Margot Robbie Doesn't Plan on Ever Watching 'Star Wars'

Star Wars is one of the most influential and widely-loved film series in cinematic history, so, for super-fans, it can be surprising to meet someone who hasn’t seen the movies--but, in fact, such people do exist. This week, it emerged that Margot Robbie never plans on watching them.

The truth came out in an interview with MTV News (via CinemaBlend) that Robbie gave to promote her upcoming Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, during which she shared that she had never seen the films--a reaction that, she says, is met with widespread shock. “I've never seen any Star Wars. And I kind of don't watch it now just because it infuriates people so much, like, 'How? How have you never watched any Star Wars?' And I just kinda wanna see how long I can make it now,” Robbie said.

During the same interview, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood co-stars Brad Pitt and Leonardo DiCaprio shared other films that they had never seen. While neither Pitt nor Robbie have ever seen Gone with the Wind, neither DiCaprio nor Pitt have seen The Sound of Music.

The emergence of this news is not the first time in recent history that a major actor has shared less than warm feelings for Star Wars. Last month, Spider-Man: Far From Home star Tom Holland, in a brazen display of insolence, confessed that he was “not a Star Wars fan.” The audacity!
