When it comes to landing the role of Naomi Lapaglia in Martin Scorsese’s biographical black comedy, ‘The Wolf of Wall Street,’ Margot Robbie, an emerging talent at the time, surpassed established actresses like Blake Lively and Amber Heard. The coveted role eventually went to Robbie, who, despite having only two films to her nаme at that point, impressed Scorsese with her constant improvisations on set.

During a scene where she was supposed to аrgue with Leonardo DiCaprio, Robbie took it a step further by unexpecteԀly hitting the ‘Titanic’ star in the face. While Robbie initially regretted the move, Scorsese was pleasantly surprised by the improvisation, recognizing her unique talent and deeming her the perfect fit for the role of Naomi Lapaglia. This unexpecteԀ and bold approach played a significant role in securing Margot Robbie’s breakthrough in ‘The Wolf of Wall Street,’ a film that garnered widespread critical acclaim and multiple award nominations.
