Margot Robbie is dying her hair for the new 3D version of 'Tarzan'.
'The Wold of Wall Street' actress recently went from blonde to brunette for another movie role and is in the process of changing it back to star alongside 'True Blood' hunk Alexander Skarsgard in the upcoming Warner Bros. film.
She told ITN News: "We start in a couple of months. I got the script, loved it, met with David Yates, the director, I loved his vision and all the pieces came together. I got picked for the role ... [I'm] very lucky.
"I just did a film where I had brown hair, it was manky brown, awful, but it was meant to look like that in the film. We made it a nicer, richer colour for the Oscars but now I have to go lighter again for 'Tarzan'."
She added: "I don't think blondes have more fun though ... people always ask me that but I love this colour."
The 23-year-old star also plans to stay in shape for the jungle film by mixing pilates with ballet, which she has been doing during her time in Los Angeles.
She explained: "I just posted a picture on Instagram from Ballet Bodies, where I have a trainer, it's like pilates with ballet techniques. I love it."
Talking about her rise to fame after staring in 'The Wolf of Wall Street', alongside Oscar-nominated actor Leonardo DiCaprio, she said: "It hasn't changed too many things, I'm just a lot busier, which is a wonderful problem. I'm really lucky and getting the chance to work with people I really want to work with, it's amazing."
Margot admits she was disappointed Leonardo didn't win an Oscar for Best Actor for his role in the film but insists he handled it well.
She said: "He's such a humble guy, he would never be a bad sport about those things. I think he's just grateful to be there and nominated, he doesn't have a big ego, despite his big profile."

Naomi Watts has regrets about playing Britain's Princess Diana.
The Oscar-nominated actress took on the role of the much loved princess in the recent biopic 'Diana', which told the story of her split from Prince Charles and her consequent relationships, and she's confessed that it may have been a mistake to make the film.
She told Harper's Bazaar magazine: "I got seduced by the fantastic character. Diana did a lot of things that had positive and negative results. She was multifaceted.
"But ultimately there were problems [with the film] and it ended up taking a direction that was not the one I was hoping for."
However, the 45-year-old star claims she doesn't completely regret doing the film as she knew from the beginning that it would be a challenge.
She added: "With risk there is every chance it's going to fail. If you have to go down with that sinking ship, so be it."
'Diana' - which was directed by Oliver Hirschbiegel - experienced an unsuccessful run in the box office when it was released in September last year and was further criticised when an advertising poster for the film was erected near the tunnel in Paris, France where Princess Diana and her boyfriend Dodi Fayed lost their lives in a car crash in 1997.

Darren Aronofsky's divorce stopped him from directing 'The Wolverine'.
The 45-year-old director had been in talks to take the reigns on the sixth installment of the 'X Men' series and despite confessing that he loved the project, he says he couldn't commit to it because he was in the middle of his divorce from 'The Mummy' actress Rachel Weisz.
He told MTV News: "I loved the script and I thought the film came out great. I just had...it was a hard time in my life.
"It was complicated. I couldn't leave New York for that long an amount of time."
The 'Noah' director, who is currently promoting the film's release, also revealed that the opportunity to direct the biblical adventure was more important to him.
He added: "And, to be honest, the possibility of 'Noah' had started to emerge, and here was something I'd been thinking about for years. I was really excited by that."
Despite turning down the role of director on superhero flick 'The Wolverine', Aronofsky - who was reportedly in talks to take the helm of 'Batman vs. Superman' - has admitted that he would definitely have been interested in the job which has been snapped up by Zack Snyder.
He said: "Superman's one of the holy grails. It's Superman. It's the best superhero. Batman is great, of course, but it's Superman. He's the same level. That possibility was great."

Scott Caan has replaced Shia LaBeouf in 'Rock The Kasbah'.
The 'Hawaii Five-0' star is in talks to take on one of the lead roles in Barry Levinson's all-star comedy after the troubled actor pulled out of the project last month, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
LaBeouf had surprisingly signed on in January after declaring he intended to retire from acting and "all public life" following "attacks against his artistic integrity", before dropping out a few weeks later.
Bill Murray, Bruce Willis, Kate Hudson, Zooey Deschanel and Danny McBride all star in the tale of a has-been rock manager's (Murray) musical misadventures in Afghanistan.
When he finds himself in Kabul penniless and without his passport, he discovers a young girl with an amazing voice and decides to manage her through Afghanistan's version of 'American Idol.'
Caan will play a military con man, who along with his partner (McBride), hustles Murray in the war-torn city.
Shia has had a difficult few months, culminating in him storming out of a 'Nymphomaniac' press conference in Berlin before arriving on the red carpet for the film's German premiere wearing a paper bag on his head that read, "I am not famous anymore."

Russell Crowe was "surprised" by the "volume" of controversy surrounding 'Noah'.
The Hollywood star hits the big screen as the titular character in the forthcoming film and although he anticipated criticism he didn't expect it would go as far as it has.
The film has been banned in numerous countries, including Pakistan, Bahrain, Qatar, UAE and the Middle East, among other places, because the governments of those countries believe it contradicts the teachings of Islam and some religious groups claim the story has been inaccurately portrayed.
Talking at the film's premiere in London's Leicester Square on Monday (31.03.14), he told BANG Showbiz: "I think when you go to a movie like this you understand that there is going to be a lot of ... controversy.
"I was surprised by the volume of it. Because you are talking about people, who by and large, are making comments based on their imagination of what it might be in a movie that they haven't seen. So it's like, 'what'?!"
The 49-year-old actor shot scenes on an Icelandic beach and kept finding small stones in unwanted places days after filming.
Crowe previously said: "That was pretty much all day lying around naked and they have these little stones, right, it's kind of as the lava meets the sea and they get smoothed off and what have you... these stones get really round.
"It was like four days (after shooting the scene), you're still getting dressed in the morning and these little stones are falling out and it's like, 'Where has that been for four days?'"
Director Darren Aronofsky, Emma Watson, Jennifer Connelly, Ray Winstone and
Logan Lerman all attended the film's London premiere.

Chris Evans insists he won't quit acting anytime soon.
The 'Caption America: The Winter Soldier' star, who recently stated he wouldn't be taking on any more acting roles aside from the Marvel commitments that he is contractually bound to, feels "silly" for suggesting he was no longer interest being in front of the camera and was eager to focus on directing.
The 32-year-old actor told 'Good Morning America' on Monday (31.03.14): "By no means am I planning on retiring. It's kind of a silly statement. But I certainly am going to try to focus a bit more on directing at this point."
He added: "I said that I directed last year. I really responded to it. I really enjoyed it. I'd love to focus a little bit more on that."
Chris attempted to clarify comments he made in an interview earlier this month, during which he said: "I've known for a while I wanted to direct. But [time] never really opens up. There's another movie to do, there's another acting job. It just got to a point where I was like, you know what - I have to do this.
"If I'm acting at all, it's going to be under Marvel contract, or I'm going to be directing. I can't see myself pursuing acting strictly outside of what I'm contractually obligated to do."
