Actress Margot Robbie playing disgraced US figure skater Tonya Harding in the movie “I, Tonya” has been a talking point on the internet since news broke of the project’s development last March.
The film follows Harding’s rise in US figure skating in the early 1990s and the infamy that came after two men who were hired by Harding’s then-husband, Jeff Gillooly, attacked Harding’s rival Nancy Kerrigan at a competition leading up to the 1994 Winter Olympics.
So far we’ve caught a glimpse of the “Suicide Squad” star dressed in her early-’90s best to play Harding:
