Teaming up with Matthew McConaughey, Camila Alves made another jaw-dropping entrance in December 2013 at The Wolf of Wall Street premiere at the Ziegfeld Theatre in New York City.

The Brazilian model arrived at the premiere to support her husband, Matthew McConaughey, who plays a role in the film as Mark Hanna, the mentor of Leonardo DiCaprio’s character, Jordan Belfort.
Although his role was small, he made a big impression with his charisma and portrayal of a ruthless Wall Street trader.
During a lunch meeting, Mark imparts unconventional advice to Jordan, including the recommendation to indulge in regular masturbation and cocaine use.

With Martin Scorsese directing and the talents of DiCaprio and McConaughey bringing this material to life, the result was destined for cinematic greatness.
Yet, a stroke of innovation elevated the scene even further. During breaks in shooting, McConaughey had been engaging in a ritual of pounding his chest and humming—a meditative practice he often used to clear his mind, prepare his voice, and find his rhythm.
Leonardo DiCaprio proposed incorporating this ritual into the scene, and this creative addition became a defining moment in the film. The collaboration between DiCaprio, McConaughey, and Scorsese led to cinematic history.

The lunchtime interaction between Leonardo DiCaprio and Matthew McConaughey’s characters was intended to occur within a World Trade Center structure.
The actual Mark Hanna, portrayed by McConaughey, revealed that he acquired a 25% stake in Jordan Belfort’s enterprise and collaborated with him for an additional two years—an aspect absent from the movie’s portrayal.
McConaughey’s visibly reduced physique resulted from his prior involvement in the 2013 American biographical drama film Dallas Buyers Club, where he shed 47 pounds to match his role. Interestingly, his weight has a noticeable progression as his character unfolds in the film.
