Margot Robbie’s I, Tonya is now casting figure skaters in Atlanta, Georgia.
Margot Robbie’s I,Tonya is now casting additional figure skaters to work on scenes filming in Atlanta, Georgia. Casting directors are searching for African American and Asian-looking figure skaters in the Atlanta area.
About I, Tonya:
During the 1994 Olympics, Tonya Harding was pitted against the more popular Nancy Kerrigan at the 1994 U.S. Figure Skating Championships, where Kerrigan was attacked by a man who struck her a few inches above her knee.
While both Kerrigan and Harding made the Olympic team that headed to the Lillehamer Olympics the attack was linked back to Harding’s ex-husband, Jeff Gillooly, and her bodyguard, Shawn Eckhardt.
Tonya Harding struck a plea agreement, admitting to conspiring to hinder prosecution, and was banned from U.S. Figure Skating and stripped of her 1994 U.S. Championship.
