Margot Robbie got rough with Alexander Skarsgard during a love scene in their new movie "The Legend of Tarzan" which is due Stateside on July 1. Director David Yates reveals that Robbie who plays Jane in the film hit her onscreen lover in the face when they were filmed the intimate scene.
"They're doing this love scene together, and I said [to Robbie], 'Just slap Alex while you're making love, just kind of give him a punch,' " the filmmaker opens up in an interview with Entertainment Weekly. "It was sort of an earthy, sensual moment of her enjoying sex with Alex, and the only bruise he picked up during the entire shoot was probably that punch from Margot. Which says a lot about her feistiness."
It's not the first time Robbie hit her co-star. She once slapped Leonardo DiCaprio during an audition for "The Wolf of Wall Street", a movie that propelled her to stardom. "I just go, 'Whack!' I hit him in the face. And then I scream, 'F*** you!' And that's not in the script at all. The room just went dead silent and I froze," she recalled to PEOPLE. "I'm thinking, 'You just hit Leonardo DiCaprio in the face. They're going to arrest you because that's assault.' "
