In a recent interview, Margot Robbie discussed her iconic role in Martin Scorsese’s ‘The Wolf of Wall Street,’ revealing that the full-frontal nude scene was her idea. Robbie recounted how she wanted to ensure her character, Naomi Lapaglia, made a significant impact right from the start of the film. ‘Naomi needed to be bold, and what better way to show that than by being unapologetically myself?’ she stated. Additionally, during her audition, instead of leaning in for a kiss, Robbie opted to slap Leonardo DiCaprio, showcasing her unique approach under the direction of Martin Scorsese. ‘I thought it would be more in line with the character’s fierce personality,’ she explained. The actress noted that Scorsese was taken aback, but it ultimately worked in her favor, landing her the role. Robbie’s genuine enthusiasm for her character and commitment to authenticity was crucial, as she emphasized, ‘I just wanted to bring her to life in a way that felt real and powerful.’
