Margot Robbie is Harper’s Bazaar Cover Star, for the April 2015 UK edition. The Australian-born actress and emerging fashion is photographed by David Slijper in a summery themed shoot sporting dresses by Stella McCartney and Valentino.
In her interview, the 24-year-old talks about her Hollywood career till date and her audition as Leonardo DiCaprio’s trophy wife in Scorsese’s epic, The Wolf of Wall Street revealing how she slapped DiCaprio..
“In my head I was like, ‘You have literally 30 seconds left in this room and if you don’t do something impressive nothing will ever come of it. It’s a once-in-a-lifetime chance, just take it.’…I just go, Whack! I hit him in the face. And then I scream, ‘Fuck you!’ And that’s not in the script at all. The room just went dead silent and I froze.”
"I'm thinking, 'You just hit Leonardo DiCaprio in the face. They're going to arrest you because that's assault,' " Robbie recalled. " 'You're definitely never going to work again, that's for sure. They'll probably sue you as well in case there's a bruise on his face and he needs to film something else.' "
But she didn't have to worry the least coz Scorsese and DiCaprio loved it and offered her the part.
Robbie now stars in her first lead role, opposite Will Smith in Focus, which is out in theaters today.
