'Babylon' shoot: Margot Robbie wanted so badly to kiss Brad Pitt that she smuggled a scene into the script

Actress Margot Robbie saw the opportunity and jumped at it. While filming "Babylon" she grabbed colleague Brad Pitt and kissed him - although that wasn't originally in the script. "It wasn't in the script," she admitted to E! News. "But I was like, 'When else will I get a chance to kiss Brad Pitt? I'll just do it.'

Robbie plays the aspiring young actress Nelly in "Babylon". Veteran actor Jack, played by Brad Pitt, and Manny (Diego Calva), also a newcomer, are tasked with helping her on the way up and leading her to stardom in Hollywood's golden era, the '20s. The perfect initial scenario for Robbie to make out with Pitt. So she said that she practically persuaded director Damien Chazelle, who also made La La Land, to add a kissing scene afterwards. She went to Chazelle and told him it would make sense if Nelly kissed Jack.

But the director smelled the roast immediately. "Damien was like, 'Well, she could - wait, wait a minute. You just want to kiss Brad Pitt,'" Robbie said. She then openly admitted it and jokingly replied: "Oh, sue me." But Chazelle was still persuaded and repeated the scene with the kiss as an extra. Robbie improvised. In an interview, she described the kiss as "simply great".

In fact, co-star Pitt isn't the only one who has enjoyed snogging with Margot Robbie. In the interview, she also revealed that she had kissed a colleague. "I also kissed Katherine [Waterston]," she said. However, she does not know whether this kiss was recorded.

The Hollywood strip "Babylon - Rush of Ecstasy" is already eagerly awaited by cinema fans. This is partly due to the star line-up. In addition to Margot Robbie and Brad Pitt, it will also star like Toby Maguire and Olivia Wilde. In Germany, the film is scheduled to hit the cinemas on January 19th.
