Hollywood star Margot Robbie is currently in the headlines thanks to her performance in Greta Gerwig’s latest movie, Barbie. There is no doubt that Robbie is the biggest Hollywood star in the world right now and that took patience and dedication.

A role that changed Robbie’s life overnight was Naomi Lapaglia in Martin Scorsese’s 2013 film, The Wolf of Wall Street. Before working with Scorsese, Robbie had only bagged small roles in a few TV shows and movies, so this was a big opportunity for her to prove herself. Apart from this, one of her The Wolf of Wall Street co-stars explained that working with Robbie was a delightful experience as she blended in perfectly in a “dude-heavy film.”

Actor Ethan Suplee praised his The Wolf of Wall Street co-star, actress Margot Robbie, explaining that it was a memorable experience working with her. In an interview with The Daily Star, the actor said,

“The first time I worked with her, she certainly wasn’t as famous as she is now. I think that for a lot of women in Hollywood, there can be an attempt to really protect an image and create an image that might not necessarily be 100% truthful. That’s okay. We’re all kind of creating what our images are. But Margot Robbie was like hanging out with a dude. She was just super cool, and she was happy to go eat at a bar. She was rough and tumble and just super cool and down to earth.”

The role of Naomi Lapaglia launched Margot Robbie’s career. Her performance was a memorable highlight of the movie, which left a lasting impression on audiences and earned her well-deserved fame.

Ethan Suplee, who has worked with Robbie in Babylon (2022) as well, further added that she perfectly blended in with the male cast in a “dude-heavy” film,

“It was surprising because I also have daughters, and I know there’s some feminine squirminess about hanging out with guys, and here’s Margot on set with a lot of dudes. Wolf of Wall Street was predominantly dudes; it was a dude-heavy film with dudey substance. And she was just cool and came on set, fit in with everyone and hung out. I think that’s just her because she’s still very down-to-earth and cool.”

Thanks to the efforts of Margot Robbie and the rest of the cast, The Wolf of Wall Street was a massive hit as it managed to earn over $406 million at the global box office on a production budget of $100 million.

In the movie, Robbie plays Naomi Lapaglia, who is the love interest of Jordan Belfort, played by Leonardo DiCaprio. The movie required Robbie to film some n*de scenes, and during one such scene, the actress got injured because of fake money. In the scene, the actress was laid down on a bed full of fake notes, so she got a “million” papercuts on her back.

Shooting the scenes was not easy for Robbie as it was her first time. In a past interview, she revealed that she had “three shots of tequila” before shooting the n*de scenes as it gave her confidence and stopped her from shaking.
