Barbie ended up pummelling Oppenheimer at the box office.

Margot, 33, in a polka dot outfit for her Variety magazine chat with Cillian, 47, said: “Ninety per cent of me was certain this would be a big deal and a massive hit and ten per cent of me thought, ‘Oh, this could go so badly wrong’.

She also urged Cillian to make a spin-off movie of his hit TV gangster series Peaky Blinders.
