Leonardo DiCaprio is no stranger to filming passionate sex scenes (remember that car scene in Titanic? ), but the Wolf of Wall Street star was taken aback when it came to getting close to costar Margot Robbie on camera.

In the January/February issue of Manhattan Magazine, the 23-year-old said she ‘shocked’ her 39-year-old co-star when she shoved him out of the way during filming because he was ‘in her light,’ while she flaunted her long legs in hot pants.

“We were positioned while they lit around us in one scene, and I kind of pushed Leo’s head to one side and told him he was in my light and he moved out of [it]. He was so incredulous that I had told him to get out of my light, and physically moved him out of the way, he was like, ‘Did you really just do that?’… I don’t think anyone has told him to get out of their light in quite some time. He seemed extremely [shocked], but it was kind of funny.”

Margot Robbie isn’t the only one who had sultry sequences with Leo in the film; Tracie Jayne, an actor and comedian, had the unenviable chore of performing a lap dance for him.

She was disappointed, however, when she failed to make him hot and bothered, and quipped that he must have been preoccupied with something else.

After confessing that licking his neck and nibbling his ear failed to excite him, she joked to TMZ, “Maybe he was wearing Spanx or he taped it down or … thought about his dead grandmother.”

Meanwhile, In the bedroom sequences, Margot may have been directing Leo what to do, but she was also looking up to him during filming! “Working with Leo challenged me every single second—the challenge just to keep up with him pushed me and got my acting to a level it’s never been, which is incredibly satisfying,” she added, describing the experience as “a dream come true.”

She went on to say, “He’s always been my favorite actor. Both he and Marty [Martin Scorcese] have such massive presences when you’re around them—they’re unstoppable, like this force that keeps moving; they have so much dimension, it sometimes seems impossible to keep up with them.”

Robbie said, “I keep getting lucky with my co-stars.” In addition to “Wolf,” she will star alongside Will Smith in “Focus,” which will be released in 2014.

She added, “You know, Will is really wonderful. We do one take that’s hilarious … and the very next take it’s really emotional and sad, and people are crying. It’s fun — we get to play with different levels all the time. He has the capacity to do both comedy and really serious drama, so there are endless possibilities.”

Margot, on the other hand, has no intention of becoming a blonde bombshell.

‘I really want to do a Western,’ she said. ‘I want to be the dude who is riding horses and doing exciting things – something where I get to do something physical and have to train for it. I don’t want to be the damsel.’
