‘The Whole Point Is That She’s Going To Come Out Completely Naked.’ Margot Robbie Shares New Details About That Wolf Of Wall Street Nude Scene Years Later

by

As a fan who has followed Margot Robbie‘s career since her breakout role in “The Wolf of Wall Street,” I can confidently say that she is not just a talented actress, but also a woman of great courage and conviction. Her ability to embrace challenges head-on, even when they involve stripping down for the camera, has only added to her appeal as an artist.

Margot Robbie is one of the biggest stars in the world right now, which is incredible when you consider that it’s been barely more than a decade since she came on most audiences’ radar in The Wolf of Wall Street. Those audiences certainly got to see a lot of her, as the film includes one of the most famous nude scenes in recent film history.

Over the past few years, there’s been less nudity in films, making Margot Robbie’s bare scene stand out more. However, what truly makes it unforgettable is not just its rarity but also the fact that it shows her completely au naturel, with no secrets left to the imagination. In a recent interview on the Talking Pictures podcast, Robbie discussed the movie, her debut on the silver screen, and how the nude scene became a significant aspect of her reflections, despite the film potentially marking her big cinematic break. The actress elaborated…

At that moment, I found myself questioning, “How can I break this news to my family before they notice, I’ve exposed myself completely?” To be honest, the thought of being an actor wasn’t even my main worry at that time. Instead, I was more concerned about, “Oh dear, everyone’s going to witness this,” and it hadn’t dawned on me until then just how significant that would be.

It was intentionally chosen for Margot Robbie, who played Naomi LaPalglia in “The Wolf of Wall Street,” to be an unrecognized actress at the time, making it a coveted opportunity for many aspiring actresses much like her.

The novice actress hadn’t yet recognized her peers when informed that “Marty” wished to meet her. It wasn’t until later, during an audition where she famously struck Leonardo DiCaprio across the face, that she landed a role which she believes may have been partially due to this bold move.

In the audition process, it seemed that Robbie, along with many others, didn’t find the necessary nudity off-putting when vying for the role. However, during the actual filming of the scene, the actress stated that if she had preferred to avoid nudity, she was allowed to do so. Robbie explained that Scorsese proposed dressing her character, but she declined as she believed that full nudity was essential for the scene’s authenticity. She went on…

He suggested, “Perhaps you might wear a robe instead if you feel uncomfortable.” But I responded, “That’s not how it would play out in this scene. She wouldn’t be donning a robe; instead, she’s intended to appear completely bare. That’s the act she’s executing now.

Numerous actresses have openly discussed the expectation to bare all on screen. In contrast, many stars outright decline nude scenes due to various personal and professional reasons. Notably, Scorsese seems to be avoiding a nudity scene for its own sake if he is willing to remove it entirely from the project.

It’s highly likely that Margot Robbie would have achieved stardom regardless of her memorable role in The Wolf of Wall Street. Now, it’s Martin Scorsese who claims to have discovered her talent, suggesting he foresaw her future success.
