Margot Robbie

Margot Robbie played Naomi Lapaglia in ‘The Wolf of Wall Street’, the model with who Leonardo DiCaprio's stock broker character Jordan Belfort falls in love with and marries in the film based on a true story.

Margot, 33, praised Scorsese for the freedom of expression he gave her during the shoot.

She said: “He only gave me one piece of direction on that whole film. In [the] six months that we shot it, he one time gave me direction. Not that he didn’t — we spoke all the time. He’d tell stories. He’d tell stories about like Mafia members and old film stars and all this kind of stuff. So, we hung out all the time. But he didn’t actually give direction.”

What exactly was the one thing that Martin asked her to do?

She explained: “The only piece of direction I got was in the water-throwing scene; I remember at one point, he’s like, ‘Can you be more on your toes?’. And I didn’t know if he meant metaphorically, like, figuratively, or literally, like, it was like a leaning forward spatial thing. I wasn’t sure, so I did a bit of both. And then, that was kind of it as far as direction went.”
