Martin Scorsese, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Jonah Hill descended on the sleepy town of Ardsley, New York last week to film several scenes for their upcoming film The Wolf of Wall Street.
The film, set in the late '80s, is a crime drama based on Jordan Belfort's memoir of the same name. Wall Street centers on New York stockbroker Belfort (DiCaprio) and his refusal to "cooperate in a large securities fraud case that involved corruption on Wall Street and in the corporate banking world," boasts IMDB.com.
Though DiCaprio is rumored to bare it all in the film, a source tells Ology that such a move is doubtful.

The crew filmed in Ardsley for three days, transforming an abandoned auto body shop in the center of town into a shabby office. While the majority of filming was done inside the garage, one scene was shot outside early Friday evening. In the scene, DiCaprio and Hill pull up to the office in a Jaguar and jump up and down in an attempt to peer through (or, presumably, break into) the windows. DiCaprio attempts to hoist Hill up before running around the corner of the building.

Scorsese, DiCaprio, and Hill were consistently welcoming to fans over the days of filming, smiling and waving at bystanders as they arrived on the set. After wrapping the shoot early Satuday morning, DiCaprio graciously invited onlookers to chat and pose for pictures with him as he signed autographs and talked to fans.

The Wolf of Wall Street also stars Matthew McConaughey, Gene Hackman, Jon Favreau, Rob Reiner, and Jean Dujardin. It is slated for release in 2013.
