She joined the cast of Neighbours in mid 2015 as 17-year-old Piper Willis.

Now, Mavournee Hazel is already eyeing her first big international career move and the shadow of Margot Robbie looms over her decision.

The 20-year-old actress has told TV Tonight that while she always planned to work in England, the temptation to follow Margot to Hollywood is real.

Hollywood temptress: The 20-year-old actress has told TV Tonight that while she always planned to work in England, the temptation to follow Margot to Hollywood is real

'I don't know if I will go to the UK or do the whole pilot season US and try to follow Margot's footsteps,' she told the website.

Mazournee said the expectation levels on the current batch of Ramsay St residents are set very high thanks to the career trajectories of their most famous alumni, particularly the Suicide Squad star.

'[When I am] meeting people outside work and they find out I'm on Neighbours, they say, 'Oh Margot Robbieeee!''

The Adelaide native always dreamed of acting while working in a fruit and veg shop growing up and attended the Ann Peters School of Acting followed with courses run by McLeod's Daughters alumni Doris Younane.

She risked her savings and her position at Sydney Uni to travel repeatedly to Melbourne in order to audition for the Melbourne based soap, but the gamble paid off.

Now she is steaming up our televisions with her on-screen relationship with older man Tyler Brennan played by 24-year-old Travis Burns, a forbidden love that fans have dubbed Typer.

Although she walks in the footsteps of Margot, it is her Suicide Squad co-star Ezra Miller who she cites as her acting hero, saying she seeks to emulate his style of performance.

She also gratefully acknowledges the support of her castmates in Erinsborough, Olympia Valance, Colette Mann and Rebekah Elmaloglou who have helped her negotiate the new world of red carpets, photo shoots and personal styling.

One eye remains firmly fixed overseas however, and she is leaving her options open, telling TV Tonight she has 'a good platform in the UK because of the show, but also in the US, so they are both very much on-par for me.'

Mavournee has previously spoken about how she strives to match Margot's work ethic on the Neighbours set.

She told news.com.au in August that 'Margot's work ethic (on Neighbours) was impeccable. She always arrived on set knowing her lines.

'Being where Margot has been I'm trying to replicate that.'

Margot made her acting breakthrough on Neighbours as Donna Freedman, appearing as a regular character between June 2008 and January 2011.

She made waves when it was revealed that Donna was bisexual and engaged in a same sex kiss with Sunny.

Her biggest Erinsborough moment was her wedding to Ringo, when she walked down the aisle to Suddenly, the same song to which Neighbours icons Scott and Charlene had married.

She got her Hollywood break in the short-lived series Pan Am, but it was her role in the Wolf of Wall Street opposite Leonardo DiCaprio that shot her to international stardom.
