Margot Robbie is one of the most popular and talented actors working in Hollywood today. After her very successful film, Barbie, which made well over $1 Billion, it’s no surprise some of the biggest talents are going to be even more interested in working with her for her talent, charisma, and undeniable beauty. This means the sky’s the limit for Robbie in terms of opportunities.
Now, it seems the critically acclaimed Marvel Studios has entered the fray and is reportedly very interested in casting her for a role in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The blockbuster franchise, full of films, tie-ins, and TV shows has long since built a grand reputation of telling interconnected long-form stories across various mediums attaching big names to their projects, each pushing their stars’ careers to new heights at times.
But now the question is, which character does the MCU have in mind for Robbie? Which character would Margot Robbie be good for in the MCU? Here are a few of them: Note: Photo rendered using AI.
6. Margot Robbie as Magik
The ruler of limbo and mutant sister of the X-Man Colossus, Magik, aka Illyana Rasputin is perhaps the most intriguing and one of the most powerful members of the New Mutants. She’s also seen a surge in popularity due to her most recent appearance in the 6v6 hero shooter Marvel Rivals.
Margot Robbie has the charisma and commanding presence to take on a role like this. She has the star power to make Illyana an appealing character to the audience. Although, this wouldn’t be the 1st time she’s been on screen in live action. That honor goes to Anya-Taylor Joy who was a good choice for the role in her own right.
However the troubled development of the New Mutants film and the multiple delays meant by and large tons of fans skipped the film and never got to witness her introduction to audiences.

5. Margot Robbie as Silver Sable
Of all the characters in Marvel, Spider-Man remains one of the most intriguing. Fans have been keeping their ears to the ground to see what’s next for the webslinger in the ever-evolving MCU/Sony Marvel universe.
Now, we know Silver Sable is a Sony Marvel character, traditionally tied to the Spider-Man universe. However, with Sony and Marvel Studios continuing their collaboration on Spider-Man films, there’s always a chance that Silver Sable could make her way into the MCU in some capacity.
A deadly Symkarian mercenary, she has crossed paths with Spider-Man on multiple occasions—sometimes as an adversary, other times as an ally. The silver-haired warrior is a formidable hand-to-hand combatant and weapons expert, as well as the owner of Silver Sable International, her own private military company.
Taking on an action-heavy role like Silver Sable could be a great fit for Robbie, allowing her to showcase her physicality much like she did as Harley Quinn in the old DCEU films.

4. Margot Robbie as Enchantress
One character we have not seen yet in any Thor film yet is the Enchantress. Given the fact that it’s time for the Thor films to get a much-needed shake-up, it’s the perfect time to do so with none other than Margot Robbie in the role.
In the comic books, the Enchantress is named Amora and is a powerful sorceress known for primarily 2 things; her beauty and her heartless schemes. Robbie has the radiant beauty and acting chops to deliver on both those fronts, respectively.
The Thor mythology of the comic books is vast and interesting and right now seeking a new direction, it’s open for one such shakeup. This would be a great time to introduce a new character with a big name attached to it. With Chris Hemsworth expressing interest in returning as the God of Thunder if the opportunity is right, it’d be a great time to bring in Robbie in the role.

3. Margot Robbie as Angela
Speaking of Thor in the MCU, this one might require some finessing given Thor: Ragnarok’s story but another fantastic addition to the MCU that Margot Robbie would be perfect for is the character Angela aka Aldrif Odinsdottir.
In the comics, she is in fact the first-born daughter of Odin and Frejya and the rightful heir to the throne. This would be in particular an issue to adapt considering the role of a forgotten sibling that was the rightful heir to Asgard’s throne has already been filled by Hela, who was originally Loki’s daughter in the comics.
Nevertheless, the forgotten firstborn was sent as an infant to the realm of Heven by the Queen of the Angels during their attack on Asgard in an attempt to get Odin to surrender but he never did.
Angela was eventually raised there and eventually even became the leader of the Hunt, having her own mansion. Angela is a very interesting character for the talented Margot Robbie to embody if the MCU wishes to bring her into the fold.

2. Margot Robbie as Mystique
The X-Men’s debut will likely happen after Avengers: Secret Wars but casting rumors are floating around already and fans are keeping a keen eye on just about any news regarding the matter.
One such character Robbie could play effortlessly is Mystique. In Fox’s X-Men franchise, this character was popularized by amazing portrayals by the talented Rebecca Romijn and later Jennifer Lawrence. Both actors brought their A-game to the character with Romijn embodying the stone-cold fox and deadly but loyal assassin aspect of her and Lawrence bringing more humanity and conflict to the role.
With a narrative as complex and relevant as the merry mutants of the Marvel Universe, Mystique is a role with a lot of inner depth and a badass cool factor to boot, something Robbie can sink her teeth into should she be cast in the role.

1. Margot Robbie as Emma Frost
A fan-favorite telepath and one of the most prominent X-Men of the modern era of comics is undoubtedly Emma Frost. She’s a blonde bombshell and has all of the sass, all of the grit, and all of the surprise compassion you’d ever expect a character like her to have—and then some.
Emma Frost brings conflict to the ice queen archetype and portrays her in a strong but surprisingly vulnerable light, making her a great character overall. She also has a fantastic relationship with X-Man Cyclops, who was sidelined heavily in the Hugh Jackman-led X-films of yesteryear.
Margot Robbie has the physique, stature, and acting capability to bring the coveted White Queen to life and finally give her her due. Emma Frost was previously portrayed by Mad Men’s January Jones in X-Men: First Class, but that version of the character didn’t leave much of an impression due to the plot stealing focus from her.
