☆ Margot Robbie thought she’d ‘go to jail’ for slapping Leonardo DiCaprio during ‘Wolf of Wall Street’ audition

CNN —Margot Robbie made a creative decision to slap Leonardo DiCaprio during her “Wolf of Wall Street” audition instead of kissing him, according to the “Barbie” star. Luckily, Robbie said, DiCaprio and the film’s director Martin Scorsese loved it and she walked out of that audition not only to eventually land the role, but shackle-free. “It was not in the script,” Robbie said of the slap, referring to the “throwing the water in the face” scene that she was reading with DiCaprio during her audition. Needless to say, Robbie never went to jail for slapping DiCaprio. Instead, she went on to have a still-thriving career in Hollywood as an Oscar-nominated actor and producer.

The retired detective was accused of using his position as a police officer in Kansas City, Kansas, to sexually assault vulnerable Black women over the course of decades. Prosecutors said in court filings that Golubski hand-picked his victims because he was confident they would never be believed. The second case accused him of being in cahoots with a drug kingpin in the sex trafficking of underage girls. Developments were chronicled on the front pages of the local newspaper, The Kansas City Star, and resulted in a crusading newspaper columnist winning one of journalism’s highest honors — a Pulitzer Prize. “This trial will turn entirely on victim credibility,” prosecutors wrote in a court filing last year.

Former “Harry Potter” film actor Rupert Grint faces a $2.3 million bill after he lost a legal battle with the tax authorities. Grint, who played Ron Weasley in the magical film franchise, was ordered to pay the money in 2019 after H.M. Revenue and Customs, the U.K. tax agency, investigated his tax return from seven years earlier. The agency said Grint had wrongly classed $5.7 million in residuals from the movies — money from DVD sales, TV syndication, streaming rights and other sources — as a capital asset rather than income, which is subject to a much higher tax rate. Lawyers for Grint appealed, but after years of wrangling a tribunal judge ruled against the actor this week. He previously lost a separate court battle over a $1.2 million tax refund in 2019.

CNN —“Wicked” actress Marissa Bode is asking for kindness after receiving ableist comments on social media. In a video posted to her TikTok page on Saturday, Bode said that while she is usually a “deeply unserious person” and loves joking around, she has received “gross and harmful” comments about her character’s disability since the release of “Wicked.”Bode, who uses a wheelchair, plays Elphaba’s (Cynthia Erivo) sister Nessarose in “Wicked.” The sisters’ complicated relationship has drawn some heated comments online from movie goers. The movie somewhat differs from the musical version, including the portrayal of the sisters’ story. “Please be kind,” she urged, before evoking a lesson from “Wicked” itself. “One of the major themes within ‘Wicked’ is having the ability to listen and to understand one another, and I truly hope that is something a lot of you can practice more and take with you,” she said.
