'Neighbours' star reveals Hollywood plans

Neighbours actress Margot Robbie has confirmed that she is heading to Hollywood after bowing out from the soap.

The 20-year-old recently filmed her final scenes as Ramsay Street's Donna Freedman following a two-year stint in the role.

In an interview with TV Week, Robbie confirmed that she is now planning to live in Los Angeles with her former co-star Caitlin Stasey (Rachel Kinski), who has already been in the city for some time.

She explained: "Caitlin has an apartment over there and she's doing great. She's going to pick me up at the airport and give me a couch to crash on.

"I know so many other people over there, whereas when I first came to Melbourne for Neighbours, I didn't know anyone. So the thought of heading to LA is actually a lot less daunting."

Robbie announced last year that she was hoping to pursue acting roles in the States, admitting that she had "big, big dreams" for the future.

The star's Neighbours exit storyline is expected to air early next year.
