Margot Robbie expresses her bafflement over the way people gave reception to her 2022's Babylon as she admits she is "biased" toward the project.

Appearing on Talking Pictures, the Academy-winning actress says, "I am still saying that," adding, "I love it. I don't get it either. I know I am biased because I am very close to the project, and I obviously believe in it, but I still can't figure out why people hated it."

She continues, "I wonder if in 20 years people are going to be like, 'Wait, "Babylon" didn't do well at the time?' Like when you hear that 'Shawshank Redemption' was a failure at the time, and you're like like, 'How is that possible?'"

Elsewhere in the interview, the Barbie actress raves about the film's director, Damian Chazelle.

"Damian is so thorough," she notes. "Do you know what I loved so much about working with him? I felt like no one had really put their foot to the floor with the gas, but he wanted that all the time. He wanted more always. Even when we were prepping."'

"When we were trying to figure out what the accent should be for that character, I gave him 51 different versions of an accent," the 34-year-old continues. 

"It was like doing a one woman show. We started off with like Boston. Nellie is from Boston. Here's what she sounds like if she's from Arkansas. Then I got specific."

"Here is Nellie if she was a mixture of Snookie from the 'Jersey Shore' and Joe Pesci. Now I'm going to be a little bit of Fran Drescher mixed with Snookie. This is how specific we got. At one point I counted all the voice things I offered him at that point and it was 51," she concludes.

Babylon, meanwhile, bombed at the box office, earning only $63 million on a budget of $80 million.
