He just topped Samuel L. Jackson and Leonardo DiCaprio. Fuck yeah!
Jonah Hill has responded after overtaking Samuel L Jackson as the actor who has dropped the most swear words in his movies. According to a study by Buzz Bingo, Hill has sworn 376 times in his films, while Jackson has racked up 301 profanities over his career. Sharing a screenshot of an article with the headline "Jonah Hill Passes Samuel L Jackson With Most F***ing Swear Words on Film," the actor wrote on his Instagram: "So many people to thank." He expressed his gratitude to The Wolf of Wall Street director Martin Scorsese "for pushing me over the edge”, adding: "And of course the great @samuelljackson. Humbled." The Wolf of Wall Street is the most profane film of all time, with offensive language used over 700 times. Leonardo DiCaprio, who also starred in the 2013 film, surpassed Jackson too, with a total of 361 uses of bad language in his movies. Hill’s other expletive-ridden roles include War Dogs and Superbad.

I don't watch any of his films something I'm very proud of so I'll take your word for it.

301 seems low for Jackson, considering how many films he's made.

Surprised it wasn’t one of the Trailer Park Boys actors.

Having a character swear is easier than writing a script where actors use words to express ideas, thoughts, emotions.

Was kind of expecting those numbers to be bigger. 300 for Samuel Ls career seems low.

So I guess the scripts for the TV show "Deadwood" were 90% profanity and 10% plot, story, character, etc.
