A woman has revealed that she was the star of the hit film Wild Child and now she has spilled secrets that no one knows about.
Starring alongside Emma Roberts and Shirley Henderson, Shelby Young played Ruby, the former best friend of main character Poppy.
voice The actor and influencer took to social media to reveal everything about the film – including deleted scenes and an iconic moment that is actually CGI.
Shelby shared the clip online with the caption “some behind the scenes movie making magic”, as she said: “I’ve been tagged a few times, especially in this clip from Wild Child, so I thought I’d duet and spill some behind the scenes secrets. .”
In the clip, Poppy, played by Emma, jumps into the ocean.
However, Shelby set the record straight on the scene, as she confirmed: “So when Poppy jumps in here, and you see her jumping into the water – that was all CGI.
“That house wasn’t directly on a cliff – there was actually a grassy area where they put a crash pad for Poppy to jump on.
“I know it blew my friends’ minds when I told them that.
“They filmed this water sequence at a later date—probably on a sound stage, just so they could control the lighting so it looked as good as it did on film.”
Shelby then revealed all the “deleted” parts, as she confirmed: “They deleted a lot of scenes from the beginning of the film for the theatrical release, but it’s under ‘deleted scenes’ on the DVD.
“They really explore Roddy and Poppy’s relationship and Ruby and Poppy, which shows how close they are, so later when Ruby steals Roddy, it’s really messed up.”
Opening up about her starring role, Shelby claimed: “It was so much fun playing such a bad character. Ruby is the worst.
“But this was my best time on set. It was very nice. ”
The TikTok clip, which was posted under the username @shelbyhyoung, has clearly stunned many, as it has quickly amassed 433,800 views.

A third commented: “I assumed it was a stunt double, but this is good to know!”
