Margot Robbie Discloses Her Brother 'Didn't Speak to Her for Months' After R-Rated Scene in 'The Wolf of Wall Street'

Margot Robbie's brother probably experienced a bit of a crisis seeing his sister in her breakout role on the big screen in 2013.

Margot Robbie has become one of Hollywood's most recognizable figures, but this wasn't always so.

Her role opposite Leonardo DiCaprio in Martin Scorsese's "The Wolf of Wall Street" was likely the film that catapulted her to global fame.

The movie is a brilliant, chaotic, and wonderful depiction of the toxic effects of excess, greed, and overindulgence.

If you weren't familiar with Robbie before the movie, you'd certainly remember her after, not just for her outstanding performance but also for some R-rated scenes.

In a recent interview on Radio 1’s Screen Time podcast, Robbie confessed to watching her breakout film with her family.

This could be seen as a daring choice, as typically one might steer clear of watching movies with sex and nudity scenes in the presence of parents, especially when you're the one in those scenes.

However, according to Robbie, it wasn't her mother or father who had the strongest reaction to the scene, but rather her brother.

Among several notable moments, it's the scene where Robbie appears on screen wearing nothing but stockings and heels in front of DiCaprio that stands out.

She commented, "I can’t tell you how uncomfortable that was. One of my brothers didn’t speak to me for three months afterward - not because he was mad, he was just, like: 'I just need a minute before I can consider you my sister again.'"

The actress has previously shared in other interviews her nervousness about filming the scene.

During a recording for BAFTA: A Life In Pictures, Robbie admitted, "I'm not going to lie, I had a couple of shots of tequila before that scene because I was nervous - very, very nervous."

"Honestly, it sounds silly now, considering how huge the movie has become."

"At the time, I thought, 'No one is going to notice me in this film.' It sort of doesn't matter what I do in this film because everyone will be focused on Leo and everything else. I figured I'd just slip under the radar."

Thankfully, she didn't slip under the radar and went on to star and lead in a whole array of films later in her career.
