I'm still obliged to think I hope they see a greedy lifestyle and in the end living in excess won't make you happy. What do you think audiences take away from it? M.R.: That is definitely her source of power, it was fun to wield that over him. Well you make her a lot of fun to watch in how she seduces Jordan. Robbie and DiCaprio in 'The Wolf of Wall Street' But the first time? Definitely, I was petrified. She would do it, do it." It was weird, but by the end of the film everyone was so used to getting undressed that we didn't care. So it really was like, "OK, be the character. The sooner we get it done, the sooner you can put your clothes back on. It's not like, "Will I or won't I?" It's that's what's in the scene, and we have to shoot that by this time tonight, and so you get on with it. You just have to grit your teeth and do it there is no other option. M.R.: Everyone on set did their best to make it a comfortable environment to shoot those scenes, but it's still incredibly daunting and uncomfortable. Speaking of showing off your bronzed skin, how easy or difficult was getting comfortable with those love scenes and skimpy outfits? How did DiCaprio and Scorsese help set you at ease? M.R.: Yeah we looked back at the photos, and they're all weirdly bronze all the time. It's crazy how certain stereotypes are true. The smell of the spray tan makes me want to gag now, but yeah, most of the cast would all get spray tans so that we would be overly bronze all the time. I would get a spray tan and my acrylic nails put on and be ready to go for another week. M.R.: Oh gosh, that was once a week on a Sunday night. What was the preferred method for achieving that? Spray tanning?

M.R.: No I have little to no patience for reality TV so thankfully I didn't have to resort to that. So you didn't have to watch any episodes of "The Real Housewives of New Jersey" or anything? It was the perfect combination of the technical training and that bizarre little trick and the expertise of Tim Monich. So I put my hands out and thought, "OK, my fingernails are wet" and suddenly these hand gestures came out and I'm waving my hands around, I've got this attitude, it really worked. Another thing that bizarrely helped: my acting coach told me when I was first putting my audition on tape, she said, "Pretend like you have acrylic nails on and they've just been painted and the paint is still wet." I said, "How does that help my accent?" She said, "Just do it." Tim Monich was Leo and my dialect coach on set, he provided me with a lot of voice recordings of actual women from Bay Ridge, Brooklyn, where my character was from, and I would just listen to them on my iPod and mimic them. So I had all the technical training in place which, now when I start working other accents, I can adapt that knowledge and use it for whatever accent I need.

M.R.: I did a lot of technical training a couple years ago when I was preparing to move to America, to prepare for the standard American accent.

How did you master that Long Island accent? So our first encounter was a little interesting but that definitely broke the ice and we've had a great working relationship ever since. DiCaprio, and then a few minutes later we're doing our scene and I ended up getting carried away and hitting him in the face. And I walked into the room and for a heartbeat I thought, "Who is that? Someone sort of homeless-looking in the corner?" And that was Mr.

We weren't in the Hamptons, we weren't at a cocktail party, we were in a studio audition room in New York, and he still had his giant beard and long hair from "Django Unchained" because he had just wrapped filming. Margot Robbie: Ha, no, it wasn't really like that at all. DiCaprio at all similar to your character's first meeting with Jordan Belfort? Yahoo Movies recently caught up with Robbie to talk about all the trappings that come with portraying a Long Island housewife in the '80s (think big hair and spray tans), why she thought DiCaprio was a homeless person when they first met, and her big year in movies, which also included her role as the English-accented first love of leading man Tim (Domnhall Gleeson) in the era-hopping family rom-com " About Time."
