Margot Robbie Reveals What It's Like To Shoot A Sex Scene With Leo DiCaprio

It's hard to imagine how awks it must be to act out a sex scene. And I'm not talking soft-kissing-on-the-bed-fade-into-a-black-screen type sex scene. I'm talking gritty, in-your-face scenes like the ones in "The Wolf of Wall Street."

Well, turns out it's definitely as awks as it looks, according to Margot Robbie.

The 26-year-old actress revealed to Vanity Fair what it was really like to spread her legs for the legend who is Leonardo DiCaprio. She revealed,

I hadn't done a proper sex scene before. I'd done scenes where it's leading into sex or sex has just finished, but I hadn't done a start-to-finish sex scene like I did in 'Wolf.' That was my first. Tons of people are watching you. There isn't an option. It's just like, this is what you need to do—get on with it. The sooner you do it, the sooner you can stop doing it.

So there you have it. A very mature approach to sex scenes from Margot Robbie.

She said what helped her was moving from Australia to America, where she found "so many people are just like the people in the movies, and [she] realized, 'Oh, so this is just real life in America'."

"The Wolf of Wall Street" was deemed as Margot's big break. But now she's trailblazing her way through Hollywood -- everyone's already fallen in love with her Harley Quinn character and "Suicide Squad" isn't even out yet.
