The slap of Leonardo DiCaprio made me famous!

In 2012, a casting for the movie "The Wolf from Wall Street" was directed by Martin Scorsese. The contender for the role of the wife of the protagonist, played by Leonardo DiCaprio, was mass, and before Robbie was a difficult task - to make a splash. At the audition it was necessary to play a scene in which the husband and wife swear. Here are what words recalls the moment of his life, Robbie:

"Probably, to tell that I was very worried, there is no sense. I knew that if I did not do something very extraordinary, then they would not approve me for the role. For half a minute in my head swept a lot of thoughts, but I could not choose the appropriate "script" for casting. And then the phrase "Motor" sounded and the shooting began. I start very loudly, impulsively hysterical and scream at DiCaprio. He does the same in return. True, he did it much better and, if I confess frankly, I could hardly keep up with him. After an active verbal skirmish, Leonardo said this phrase: "How do you not understand that you are a lucky woman! You are very lucky with a husband like me. Come and kiss me. " I begin to approach Leo and, unexpectedly for myself and all those present, I beat him in the face with the words: "Yes you have gone!". It was this slap in the face of Leonardo DiCaprio that made me famous! I was immediately approved for the role, and after the shooting began, I repeatedly heard that Scorsese was simply stupefied when he saw what I had done with Leonardo. To be honest, I thought that DiCaprio would sue me, because there was no such "sick trick" in the script. "

Martin Scorsese also commented on the slap Margo

In addition to Robbie, about the very blow to Leonardo's cheek, I decided to tell Scorese. That's what Martin said:

"I really like such bold actresses. Her improvisation stunned not only me, but all those present on the court. Robbie confirmed the right to play in this picture and continue to cast for the role of the main character's wife was pointless. It was our first meeting, and I remembered Margot for life. "

So, she appeared with Will Smith in the "Focus" tape. In addition, Margot can be seen in the sensational films "Tarzan" and "Squad of suicides".
