Margot Robbie Delves into Filming Authentic Body Features in Intimate Scenes

Margot Robbie, known for her role in The Wolf of Wall Street, recently shared some insights on how filmmakers capture authentic body features like ‘real bre-sts and pubic hair’ in intimate scenes.

Having embraced n^dty and intimate scenes in various films, Robbie is now involved in the upcoming project Babylon, a 1920s drama that also features explicit content.

During a radio show appearance to promote the movie alongside co-star Diego Calva, Robbie discussed the challenges of filming nudity, especially in period dramas like Babylon.

Calva mentioned that they quickly became accustomed to being surrounded by n^de individuals on set, prompting Robbie to agree that the cast grew ‘desensitized’ to such situations.

The hosts of the show raised the issue of finding women with authentic body features for period pieces, leading to a conversation about the use of ‘merkins’ in the industry.

Robbie explained that merkins are essentially genital wigs, used to maintain authenticity in scenes requiring specific body features.

Her familiarity with merkins dates back to her experience on The Wolf of Wall Street, where she encountered a room filled with these creations for filming purposes.

Reflecting on her nerves before filming the n^de scene with Leonardo DiCaprio in The Wolf of Wall Street, Robbie admitted to having a bit of liquid courage to ease her anxiety.

Despite initially thinking she could go unnoticed in the scene due to DiCaprio’s presence, she later realized the significance of her role in the film’s success.

Robbie’s openness about her past experiences with n^de scenes highlights her professionalism and dedication to her craft, providing valuable insights for future projects.
