Rebel Wilson was given special treatment upon her arrival in Australia from the US on Monday.
The A-list actress, 41, who flew from Los Angeles to Sydney ahead of her appearance at Wednesday's AACTA Awards, was granted permission by the New South Wales Government to skip mandatory 72-hour quarantine.
Unlike the vast majority of international travellers, Rebel was able to visit a public park just hours after touching down, where she was pictured spending time with family and friends including her sister Annachi.

Rebel's manager told Daily Mail Australia on Wednesday: 'Rebel received government permission from NSW Minister for Health and Medical Research Brad Hazzard.'
The manager was unable to provide the reason for why Rebel was granted the exemption, but did confirm the star 'has been doing multiple PCR [nose and throat swab] tests' since her arrival in Sydney.
Rebel is scheduled to walk the red carpet at the AACTA Awards at Sydney Opera House on Wednesday evening, joining fellow A-listers including Russell Crowe and Taika Waititi.
