Did Margot Robbie's legs get digitally enhanced in Wolf Of Wall Street scenes?
It's no secret that the beautiful starlets of film are often made to look even more glamorous with the smoke and mirrors of Hollywood.
Margot Robbie may have been the victim of a new trick film execs have up their sleeves called digital surgery, which makes actresses appear taller and thinner using a Photoshop-like program in post-production.
Its discovery has led to speculation that the technique was used on 23-year-old Robbie in The Wolf Of Wall Street, as some bloggers believe she looked impossibly leggy in some of the film's scenes.
In one of Wall Street's more risque scenes, Robbie is seen pushing her husband's head away with her heels, which are at the end of a LOT of leg.
It is said that the 23-year-old actress would have been upset about the technique and she has recently spoken out against the pressures on women to be perfect in films.
She said in a recent interview: 'When you look at movies the lead girl is always gorgeous and thin.
'There is a stereotype that you need to look a certain way and when you get into the business you really feel the pressure.'
News.com.au reached out to a rep, who declined to say whether Robbie’s legs had been edited, but did say that execs had originally intended to digitally emphasize her eyes, before decided that Robbie's baby blues were piercing enough naturally.
The new enhancement fad has been revealed after singer Britney Spears appeared in a documentary about her Las Vegas show, looking remarkably taller and slimmer.
A source at Hoax Films, which worked on the documentary compared it to a 'fun house mirror.'
The technique is being branded 'digital surgery' and is also being employed to replace lines and wrinkles on the faces of stars who have had Botox.
Lola Visual Effects, which worked on The Wolf of Wall Street, has reportedly used digital surgery on films. A senior producer confirmed to The Sunday Times that it did use the technique but would not go into details about which films.
Gavin Polone, who produced Zombieland and My Super Ex-Girlfriend said the technique had become more common in recent years as costs for using the technology have fallen.
He said it was always women that were digitally stretched, and it was usually female film executives which ordered the digital surgery to be carried out.
