She first appeared in 2008 before bidding farewell in 2011, and she's since gone on to star in Suicide Squad, Wolf of Wall Street and she's about to star as Barbie in Greta Gerwig’s forthcoming film.

The exciting news of Margot's return was confirmed on the Neighbours Twitter account, with a post featuring a snap of Margot.

It read: "Surprise! You didn’t think we were done did you?!

"We’re thrilled to share that Margot Robbie, Jesse Spencer, Delta Goodrem, Kym Valentine and Carla Bonner will all make an appearance in our finale!"

The much-loved soap has been pivotal in the careers of many A-list stars including Kylie Minogue, Guy Pearce, Liam Hemsworth and Margot.

The show currently airs on Network Ten in Australia, and Channel 5 here in the UK.

It was announced back in February 2022 that the long running soap had been cancelled.

Neighbours filmed its last scenes in June 2022.

The soap will air the final episode on July 29, 2022 at 9pm on Channel 5.

Other huge names returning for the finale are Kylie Minogue and Jason Donovan who have recorded a scene to go into the last episode.

And Hollywood legend Guy Pearce who rose to fame playing Mike Young in the Australian TV series is back too, amongst many others.

A spokesperson from Fremantle Media said the response from fans had been immense.

"Everyone at Neighbours has been overwhelmed by the love and support from the audience since the news came out," they said.
