Actress Margot Robbie saw her professional career take a huge leap after playing Naomi Lapaglia in 'The Wolf of Wall Street', directed by Martin Scorsese. The Australian has explained, however, that some of the scenes were not easy. In fact, in one of them she even suffered injuries.
When her character was having sex with Jordan, the character played by Leonardo DiCaprio, on a bed full of bills, she cut herself. In fact, her dollars were brand new and the tips of hers gave her small cuts on her back.
Beyond this uncomfortable scene, the actress has recognized on several occasions that filming her was complex on a personal level. "He doesn't appear when you're watching the movie, the audience doesn't see him, but we're actually in a small room with 30 crew members. All men. For 17 hours I pretended to be touching myself," he told Porter in an interview.
In fact, Margot Robbie even referred to sexual harassment: "I'm in my late twenties, I have studies, I have everything, I've worked, I have my own company. And yet I didn't know what that was, about harassment. It's from crazy. I didn't know you could say, 'I've been sexually harassed' without anyone touching you. That you could say, 'This isn't right.' I had no idea..."
Margot Robbie's confession
In another interview to the New York Times, the Australian actress confessed that she prepared for the scene with tequila. "I was shaking, scared, thinking all the time that I wasn't going to be able to do it. When I got here, when it was my turn to do it, I had three shots of tequila and then I took off my clothes and did it. It helped keep my hands from shaking hands and gave me a little boost of confidence," he confessed.
