A film set with both Leo DiCaprio and Jonah Hill on it, filming a movie about the spoils of wretched excess no less, sounds like it'd be a raucous time. Jonah Hill may have just come with the best Wolf of Wall Street set anecdote thus far, with this account of how he got Leo back for being rough during the movie's fight scenes:

"We had fight scenes in the movie where we have to play physical with each other, and he basically beat the crap out of me for six months - and he's bigger than me, so I couldn't really retaliate and cause damage. I was like, 'I have to get this guy back. What do I do?' 

In one of the most emotional scenes in the movie, we're eating sushi and in the script he's supposed to say, 'Do you want that last piece?'... and I say, 'Yes', and I eat it. When we did the first take, he says, 'Do you want that last piece?' and I go, 'No, you have it'. 

So he had to do 100 takes of eating (sushi) over and over again and I was like, 'This is my revenge right here'. By the end of the night, he was on the floor, throwing up into a waste bin and everyone was like, 'Leo, are you okay?'"

And of course, according to Jonah at least, Martin Scorsese found the prank hilarious and was "laughing hysterically."
