Margot Robbie's Actual Art Is Featured In Amsterdam For A Very Good Reason

Like Valerie, Margot Robbie used a variety of mediums to bring her character's artistic vision to life, and some of the Super 8 footage she filmed can be seen in the final cut of "Amsterdam." David O. Russell explained that Valerie's art was meant to be extremely personal, noting, "[Robbie] made this art based on this artist. It could only have come out of someone who pulled bloody metal out of John David and Christian, [who play] Harold Woodman and Burt Berendsen."

Russell shared that the art Robbie made during lockdown captured Valerie's artistic vision perfectly. "This is as good as it gets, what Margot made at her house, and it's in the movie," Russell said, seemingly thrilled to be able to use the art Robbie created while channeling Valerie.

Robbie explained that her desire to fully immerse herself in the character came from a very genuine place. "I fell in love with her. [She] really marches to the beat of her own drum, and her friendship pact that she makes with Harold and Burt, it's everything to her," she said. "I think you do end up infusing parts of yourself in there, and I think that comes across in a very authentic way on camera."

"Amsterdam" opens in movie theaters on October 7.
