Leonardo Wilhelm DiCaprio was born on November 11, 1974, in Los Angeles, California. He is the only
child of Irmelin Indenbirken, a legal secretary, and George DiCaprio, an underground comix artist and distributor; they met while attending college and
moved to Los Angeles after graduating.[2][3] His mother is German and his father is of Italian and German descent.[4] His maternal grandfather, Wilhelm
Indenbirken, was German,[5] and his maternal grandmother, Helene Indenbirken, was a Russian immigrant living in Germany.[6] DiCaprio was raised
Catholic.[7] Sources have falsely claimed his maternal grandmother was born in Odesa, Ukraine; there is no evidence that DiCaprio has any relatives of
Ukrainian birth or heritage.[8]

DiCaprio's parents named him Leonardo because his pregnant mother first felt him kick while she was looking at a Leonardo da Vinci painting in the
Uffizi museum in Florence, Italy.[9] When DiCaprio was one year old, his parents divorced after his father fell in love with another woman and moved
out.[10][11] To raise him together, his parents moved into twin cottages with a shared garden in Echo Park, Los Angeles.[10][12] DiCaprio's father lived
with his girlfriend and her son, Adam Farrar, with whom DiCaprio developed a close bond.[13] DiCaprio and his mother later moved to other
neighborhoods, such as Los Feliz.[14] He has described his parents as "bohemian in every sense of the word" and as "the people I trust the most in the
world".[15] DiCaprio has stated that he grew up poor in a neighborhood plagued with prostitution, crime and violence.[16] Attending the Los Angeles
Center for Enriched Studies for four years and later the Seeds Elementary School, he later enrolled at the John Marshall High School.[17][18] DiCaprio
disliked public school and wanted to audition for acting jobs instead.[16] He dropped out of high school later, eventually earning a general equivalency
diploma.[19]

As a child, DiCaprio wanted to become either a marine biologist or an actor. He eventually favored the latter; he liked impersonating characters and
imitating people, and enjoyed seeing their reactions to his acting.[20] According to DiCaprio, his interest in performing began at the age of two when he
went onto the stage at a performance festival and danced spontaneously to a positive response from the crowd.[21] He was also motivated to learn
acting when Farrar's appearance in a television commercial earned him $50,000.[22] DiCaprio has said in interviews that his first television appearance
was in the children's series Romper Room, and that he was dismissed from the show for being disruptive. The show's host has denied that any children
were removed from the show in this way.[23][24] At 14, he began appearing in several commercials for Matchbox cars, which he calls his first role.[23]
DiCaprio later appeared in commercials for Kraft Singles, Bubble Yum and Apple Jacks.[25] In 1989, he played the role of Glen in two episodes of the
television show The New Lassie.[26]

At the beginning of his career, DiCaprio had difficulty finding an agent. When he found one, the agent suggested DiCaprio change his name to Lenny
Williams to appeal to American audiences, which he declined to do.[27] DiCaprio remained jobless for a year and a half, although he had 100 auditions.
Following this lack of success, DiCaprio was going to give up acting but his father persuaded him to persevere. Motivated by his father and by the
prospect of financial security, he continued to audition. After a talent agent, who knew his mother's friend, recommended him to casting directors,
DiCaprio secured roles in about 20 commercials.[28]

By the early 1990s, DiCaprio began acting regularly on television, starting with a role in the pilot of The Outsiders (1990) and one episode of the soap
opera Santa Barbara (1990), in which he played a teenage alcoholic.[29] DiCaprio's career prospects improved when he was cast in Parenthood, a
series based on the 1989 comedy film of the same name. To prepare for the role of Garry Buckman, a troubled teenager, he analyzed Joaquin
Phoenix's performance in the original film.[30] His work that year earned him two nominations at the 12th Youth in Film Awards—Best Young Actor in a
Daytime Series for Santa Barbara and Best Young Actor Starring in a New Television Series for Parenthood.[31] Around this time, he was a contestant
on the children's game show Fun House, on which he performed several stunts, including catching the fish inside a small pool using only his
teeth.[32][33]

Career

1991–1996: Early work and breakthrough


DiCaprio made his film debut in 1991 as the stepson of an unscrupulous landlord in the low-budget horror sequel Critters 3 – a part he later described
as "your average, no-depth, standard kid with blond hair".[34] DiCaprio has stated that he prefers not to remember Critters 3, viewing it as "possibly one
of the worst films of all time" and the kind of role he wanted to avoid in the future.[35] Later in 1991, he became a recurring cast member on the sitcom
Growing Pains, playing Luke Brower, a homeless boy who is taken in by the show's central family.[36] Co-star Joanna Kerns recalls DiCaprio being
"especially intelligent and disarming for his age" but she noted that he was also mischievous and jocular on set, and often made fun of his co-stars.[37]
DiCaprio was cast by the producers to appeal to young female audience, but his arrival did not improve the show's ratings and he left before the end of
its run.[38] He was nominated for a Young Artist Award for Best Young Actor Co-starring in a Television Series.[39] DiCaprio also had an uncredited role
in 1991 in one episode of Roseanne.[40]

In 1992, DiCaprio had a brief role in the first installment of the Poison Ivy film series,[41] and was handpicked by Robert
De Niro from a shortlist of 400 young actors to co-star with him in This Boy's Life. Adapted from the memoir by Tobias
Wolff, the film focuses on the relationship between a rebellious teenager, Toby (DiCaprio), and his mother (Ellen
Barkin) and abusive stepfather (De Niro).[23][42][43] Director Michael Caton-Jones said that DiCaprio did not know how
to behave on set; accordingly, Caton-Jones used a strict mentoring style, after which DiCaprio's behavior began to
improve.[37] Bilge Ebiri of Rolling Stone found that the powerful bond between Barkin and DiCaprio elevated the film,
praising DiCaprio's portrayal of his character's complex growth from a rebellious teen to an independent young
man.[41] This Boy's Life was the first film that gained him recognition.[44]

DiCaprio played the developmentally disabled brother of Johnny Depp's character in What's Eating Gilbert Grape
(1993), a comedy-drama about a dysfunctional Iowa family. Caton-Jones recommended DiCaprio to director Lasse
Lasse Hallström directed
Hallström who was initially skeptical, as he considered DiCaprio too good-looking for the part. Hallström cast DiCaprio
DiCaprio in What's Eating
after he emerged as "the most observant" auditionee.[34][37] To ensure authenticity in his portrayal, DiCaprio studied Gilbert Grape (1993), for
similarly impaired children and their mannerisms, and Hallström allowed him to create the character using his own which he earned his first
researched attributes.[45] The film became a critical success.[46] At 19, DiCaprio earned a National Board of Review Academy Award nomination.

Award, as well as nominations for a Golden Globe Award and an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor, making
him the seventh-youngest Oscar nominee in the category.[47][48] "The film's real show-stopping turn comes from Mr. DiCaprio," wrote New York Times
critic Janet Maslin, "who makes Arnie's many tics so startling and vivid that at first he is difficult to watch. The performance has a sharp, desperate
intensity from beginning to end."[49] Caryn James, also writing for The New York Times, said of his performances in This Boy's Life and What's Eating
Gilbert Grape: "He made the raw, emotional neediness of those boys completely natural and powerful."[50]

DiCaprio's first role of 1995 was in Sam Raimi's Western The Quick and the Dead. When Sony Pictures became dubious over DiCaprio's casting, co-
star Sharon Stone paid his salary herself.[51] The film was released to dismal box office performance and mixed reviews from critics.[52][53] DiCaprio
next starred as a teenage Jim Carroll, a drug-addicted high school basketball player and budding writer, in the biopic The Basketball Diaries.[54] He
starred in the erotic drama Total Eclipse (1995), driven by the desire to showcase an exceptional performance, which would focus on his acting talent
rather than his much-discussed physical appeal.[55] Directed by Agnieszka Holland, it is a fictionalized account of the same-sex relationship between
Arthur Rimbaud (DiCaprio) and Paul Verlaine (David Thewlis). DiCaprio was cast when River Phoenix died before filming began.[10] Although the film
failed commercially,[56] it has been included in the catalog of the Warner Archive Collection, which releases classic and cult films from Warner Bros.'
library on home video.[57] A review in the San Francisco Chronicle called DiCaprio "his generation's great acting promise" but criticized the mismatch
between Thewlis's "cultivated" British accent and DiCaprio's "Southern California twang".[58]

DiCaprio next starred opposite Claire Danes in Baz Luhrmann's Romeo + Juliet (1996), an abridged modernization of William Shakespeare's romantic
tragedy, which retained the original Shakespearean dialogue. DiCaprio was initially unsure about another Romeo and Juliet adaptation, but at his
father's suggestion, he agreed to examine Luhrmann's work more closely. DiCaprio and Luhrmann then spent a two-week workshop exchanging ideas,
which led to the collaboration.[59] Romeo + Juliet established DiCaprio as a leading Hollywood actor; according to film scholar Murray Pomerance,
DiCaprio's newfound popularity helped the film become profitable only days after its release.[60][61] Reviewing DiCaprio's early works, David Thomson
of The Guardian called DiCaprio "a revelation" in What's Eating Gilbert Grape, "very moving" in This Boy's Life, "suitably desperate" in The Basketball
Diaries and "a vital spark" in Romeo + Juliet.[62] The latter earned DiCaprio a Silver Bear for Best Actor at the 1997 Berlin International Film Festival.[63]
He then portrayed a young man who has been committed to a mental asylum in Marvin's Room (1996), a family drama about two estranged sisters,
played by Meryl Streep and Diane Keaton, who are reunited through tragedy. He played Hank, the troubled son of Streep's character.[64] Lisa
Schwarzbaum of Entertainment Weekly praised "the deeply gifted DiCaprio" for holding his own against veteran actresses Keaton and Streep,
describing the three as "full-bodied and so powerfully affecting that you're carried along on the pleasure of being in the presence of their extraordinary
talent".[65]

1997–2001: Titanic and worldwide recognition


"Leo-mania" redirects here.

DiCaprio rejected a role in Boogie Nights (1997) to star opposite Kate Winslet in James Cameron's Titanic as members of different social classes who
fall in love aboard RMS Titanic during its ill-fated maiden voyage.[66] DiCaprio initially had doubts, but was eventually encouraged by Cameron to
pursue the part.[67] With a production budget of more than $200 million,[68][69] the film was the most expensive in history at the time, and was shot at
Rosarito, Baja California where a replica of the ship was created.[70] Titanic became the highest-grossing film at the time, eventually earning more than
$2.1 billion in box-office receipts worldwide.[a] The role of Jack Dawson transformed DiCaprio into a superstar, resulting in intense adoration among
teenage girls and young women that became known as "Leo-mania".[73][74] The film won 11 Academy Awards—the most wins for any film – including
Best Picture, but DiCaprio's failure to gain a nomination led to a protest against the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS) by more
than 200 fans.[75][76] He was nominated for other high-profile awards, including a Golden Globe Award for Best Actor.[77]

DiCaprio stated in 2000: "I have no connection with me during that whole Titanic phenomenon and what my face
became around the world [...] I'll never reach that state of popularity again, and I don't expect to [...] It's not something
I'm going to try to achieve either."[78] In his 2015 Rolling Stone article, Ebiri called the role DiCaprio's best, writing that
he and Winslet "infuse their earnest back-and-forth with so much genuine emotion that it's hard not to get swept up in
their doomed love affair."[41] A writer for Vanity Fair in 2008 similarly labeled them "Hollywood's most iconic screen
couple" since Humphrey Bogart and Ingrid Bergman.[79] Essaying her first viewing of the film in 2017, Vox contributor
Alissa Wilkinson took note of DiCaprio's "boyish charm" and found his performance "natural and unaffected".[80] The
success of Titanic intensified DiCaprio's standing as a teen idol and romantic lead, an image from which he sought to
dissociate himself.[74] He reduced his workload "to learn to hear [his] own voice in choosing the roles" that he wanted
to pursue.[81]

DiCaprio at a press DiCaprio had a brief featured role in Woody Allen's 1998 satire of fame, Celebrity. Ebiri labeled DiCaprio "the best thing
conference for The Beach in
in the film".[41][82] That year, he also took on the dual roles of villainous King Louis XIV and his secret, sympathetic twin
2000
brother Philippe in Randall Wallace's The Man in the Iron Mask, with common elements from the 1939 film of the same
name and a 1929 film with Douglas Fairbanks.[83] It received mixed to negative reviews,[84] but grossed $180 million
against a budget of $35 million.[85][86] Entertainment Weekly critic Owen Gleiberman wrote that DiCaprio did not look old enough to play the part, but
praised him as "a fluid and instinctive actor, with the face of a mischievous angel".[87] The Guardian's Alex von Tunzelmann was similarly impressed
with the actor's performance but found his talent wasted in the film.[88] DiCaprio won a Golden Raspberry Award for Worst Screen Couple for the dual
roles in 1999.[89]

Also in 1998, DiCaprio was cast to star in American Psycho (2000) for a reported salary of $20 million; after disagreements with Oliver Stone on the
film's direction, DiCaprio left the project, taking the lead role in The Beach instead.[90] Adapted from Alex Garland's 1996 novel, the film saw him play a
backpacking American tourist who ends up in a secret island commune in the Gulf of Thailand.[91] Budgeted at $50 million, the film earned almost three
times that at the box office,[92] but was negatively reviewed by critics, and earned him a nomination for the Golden Raspberry Award for Worst
Actor.[93][94] Todd McCarthy of Variety thought DiCaprio gave a compelling performance but his character lacked defining qualities.[95] The film received
criticism for damaging the filming location in Thailand, after which DiCaprio worked to restore the area.[96]

In the mid-1990s, DiCaprio agreed to be in the mostly improvised black-and-white short film Don's Plum as a favor to aspiring director R. D. Robb.[23]
When Robb expanded it to a full-length film, DiCaprio and co-star Tobey Maguire had its release blocked in the US and Canada by court order, arguing
they never intended to make a feature film. The film premiered at the 2001 Berlin International Film Festival but remains obscure.[97]

2002–2009: Venture into film production


See also: Martin Scorsese and Leonardo DiCaprio and Appian Way Productions

DiCaprio turned down the role of Anakin Skywalker in Star Wars: Episode II – Attack of the Clones (2002),
feeling unprepared to "take that dive" at the time.[98] His first film that year was the biopic Catch Me If You Can,
based on the life of Frank Abagnale Jr., who before his 19th birthday committed check fraud to make millions in
the 1960s.[99] Directed by Steven Spielberg, the film was shot across 147 different locations in 52 days,
making it "the most adventurous, super-charged movie-making" DiCaprio had experienced yet.[100] The film
received critical acclaim and grossed $355 million against a budget of $52 million, becoming his second
highest-grossing release after Titanic.[101][102] Roger Ebert praised his departure from dark and troubled
characters,[99] and two Entertainment Weekly critics in 2018 called it DiCaprio's best role, labeling him DiCaprio attending an event for
"delightfully persuasive, deceptive, flirtatious, and sometimes tragic—and we dare you to find a better role, if Gangs of New York with Martin
you can".[103] DiCaprio received his third Golden Globe nomination for his performance in the film.[104] Scorsese and Cameron Diaz at the
2002 Cannes Film Festival
Also in 2002, DiCaprio starred in Martin Scorsese's Gangs of New York, a historical drama set in the mid-19th
century in the Five Points district of New York City. Scorsese initially struggled selling his idea of realizing the
film until DiCaprio became interested in starring in the film, and thus Miramax Films got involved with financing the project. Nonetheless, production on
the film was plagued by overshooting of budgets and producer-director disagreements, resulting in an eight-month shoot. With a budget of
$103 million, the film was the most expensive Scorsese had ever made. DiCaprio was drawn to playing Amsterdam Vallon, the young leader of an Irish-
American street gang, as it marked a shift from "boyish" roles to a mature leading man.[105] Gangs of New York earned $193 million worldwide and
received positive critical response.[106][107] Anne Thompson of The Observer took note of DiCaprio's "low-key, sturdy performance", but felt that co-star
Daniel Day-Lewis overshadowed him.[108]

In 2004, DiCaprio founded the production company Appian Way Productions, a namesake of the Italian road.[109] He was interested in finding unique
source material and preserving its essence during development, citing previous experiences where the involvement of too many people influenced the
final product in a negative way.[110] DiCaprio first executive-produced The Assassination of Richard Nixon, which starred Sean Penn as Samuel
Byck,[40] and was screened at the 2004 Cannes Film Festival.[111] DiCaprio and Scorsese reunited for a biopic of Howard Hughes, an American film
director and aviation pioneer suffering from obsessive–compulsive disorder, in The Aviator (2004), which DiCaprio also co-produced under Appian Way.
He initially developed the project with Michael Mann who was eventually replaced by Scorsese.[112][113] The Aviator became a critical and financial
success, grossing $213 million against its budget of $110 million.[114][115] Simond Braund of Empire thought DiCaprio convincingly played a complex
role and highlighted the scenes depicting Hughes's paranoia and obsession.[116] He received his first Golden Globe Award for Best Actor — Motion
Picture Drama and nominations for an Academy Award, a BAFTA Award and a Screen Actors Guild Award.[117]

In 2006, DiCaprio starred in the crime film The Departed and the political war thriller Blood Diamond. In Scorsese's The Departed, DiCaprio played the
role of Billy Costigan, a state trooper working undercover in the Irish Mob in Boston, someone he characterizes as being in a "constant 24-hour panic
attack". DiCaprio especially liked the experience of working with co-star Jack Nicholson, describing a scene with him as "one of the most memorable
moments" of his life as an actor.[118] In preparation, he visited Boston to interact with people associated with the Irish Mob and gained 15 pounds
(6.8 kg) of muscle.[119] Critically acclaimed,[120] the film grossed $291 million against a budget of $90 million, becoming DiCaprio and Scorsese's
highest-grossing collaboration to that point.[121][102] Peter Travers of Rolling Stone praised DiCaprio's and co-star Matt Damon's performances as
"explosive, emotionally complex", but felt that Nicholson overshadowed the two.[122] Despite DiCaprio's leading role in The Departed, the film's
distributor Warner Bros. Pictures submitted his performance for a Best Supporting Actor nomination at the AMPAS to avoid internal conflict with his part
in Blood Diamond.[123] Instead, his co-star Mark Wahlberg was nominated, though DiCaprio earned other accolades for The Departed, including a
Satellite Award for Best Supporting Actor and Best Actor nominations at the Golden Globes and BAFTA Awards.[124]

In Blood Diamond, DiCaprio starred as a diamond smuggler from Rhodesia who is involved in the Sierra Leone Civil
War. While filming, he worked with 24 orphaned children from the SOS Children's Village in Maputo, Mozambique, and
said he was touched by his interactions with them.[125] To prepare, he spent six months in Africa, learned about
camouflage from people in South African military and interviewed and recorded people in the country to improve his
accent.[126] The film received generally favorable reviews,[127] and DiCaprio was noted for his South African accent,
which is generally known as difficult to imitate.[128] Claudia Puig of the USA Today approvingly highlighted DiCaprio's
transition from a boy to a man on screen,[129] and Ann Hornaday of The Washington Post similarly noted his growth as
an actor since The Departed.[130] DiCaprio received nominations for an Academy Award and a Golden Globe for Blood
Diamond.[124]

In 2007, DiCaprio produced the comedy drama Gardener of Eden, which according to The Hollywood Reporter 's Frank
Scheck "lack[ed] the necessary dramatic urgency or black humor to connect with audiences".[131] Later that year, he
DiCaprio at the 2007
produced, co-wrote and narrated The 11th Hour, a documentary on the state of the natural environment that won the Tribeca Film Festival
Earthwatch Environmental Film Award in 2008.[132] DiCaprio's Appian Way produced Planet Green's Greensburg
(2008–2010), which ran for three seasons. Set in Greensburg, Kansas, it is about rebuilding the town in a sustainable
way after being hit by the May 2007 EF5 tornado.[133] Also in 2008, DiCaprio starred in Body of Lies, a spy film based on the novel of the same name.
He played one of three agents battling a terrorist organization in the Middle East.[134] Considering the film to be a throwback to political features of the
1970s like The Parallax View (1974) and Three Days of the Condor (1975), DiCaprio dyed his hair brown and wore brown contacts for the role.[134] The
film received mixed reviews from critics,[135] and grossed $118 million against a budget of $67.5 million.[136]

Later in 2008, DiCaprio collaborated with Kate Winslet for the drama Revolutionary Road, directed by her then-husband Sam Mendes. As both actors
had been reluctant to make romantic films similar to Titanic, it was Winslet who suggested that they both work with her on a film adaptation of the 1961
eponymous novel by Richard Yates. She found that the script, by Justin Haythe, had little in common with the 1997 blockbuster.[137] Playing a couple in
a failing marriage in the 1950s, DiCaprio and Winslet spent some time together in preparation, and DiCaprio felt claustrophobic on the small set they
used.[79][138] He saw his character as "unheroic", "slightly cowardly" and someone "willing to be just a product of his environment".[139] Peter Travers
liked DiCaprio's pairing with Winslet and his multi-layered portrayal of an overwhelmed character,[140] and Marshall Sella of GQ called it the "most
mature and memorable performance of his lifetime".[138] DiCaprio earned his seventh Golden Globes nomination for the film.[141] Revolutionary Road
grossed $75.9 million against its budget of $35 million.[142] He ended the 2000s by producing director Jaume Collet-Serra's psychological horror thriller
film Orphan (2009), starring Vera Farmiga, Peter Sarsgaard and Isabelle Fuhrman. Although the film received mixed reviews, it was a commercial
success.[143]

2010–2013: Films with high-profile directors


DiCaprio continued to collaborate with Scorsese in the 2010 psychological thriller film Shutter Island, based on the 2003 novel of the same name by
Dennis Lehane. He played Edward "Teddy" Daniels, a U.S. Marshal investigating a psychiatric facility located on an island, who comes to question his
own sanity. DiCaprio and Scorsese became interested in the project in 2007, and the former co-produced the film under Appian Way with Phoenix
Pictures.[144] Because of the film's disturbing scenes, DiCaprio had nightmares of mass murder during production and considered relaxing with his
friends a form of therapy.[145] The film was released to mixed reviews;[146] Peter Bradshaw of The Guardian praised Scorsese's direction and the acting
but criticized its twist ending.[147] Peter Travers called it DiCaprio's "most haunting and emotionally complex performance yet", and particularly liked his
cave scene with co-star Patricia Clarkson.[148] The film was a commercial success, grossing $294 million worldwide against a budget of
$80 million.[149]

DiCaprio's second role in 2010 was in Christopher Nolan's critically acclaimed ensemble science-fiction film
Inception.[150] Inspired by the experience of lucid dreaming and dream incubation,[151] the film features Dom
Cobb (DiCaprio), an "extractor" who enters the dreams of others to obtain information that is otherwise
inaccessible. Cobb is promised a chance to regain his old life in exchange for planting an idea in a corporate
target's mind.[152] DiCaprio was fascinated with the idea of a "dream-heist" and the potential for his character
to manipulate his dreamworld and impact his real life.[153] Made on a budget of $160 million, the film grossed
DiCaprio (first from the right) with
$836 million worldwide to become DiCaprio's second highest-grossing film.[102][154] To star in this film,
the cast of Inception at the film's
premiere in 2010 DiCaprio agreed to a pay cut from his $20 million fee and opted for a share in first-dollar gross points, which
entitled him to a percentage of the cinema ticket sales. The risk proved fruitful, as DiCaprio earned $50 million
from the film, becoming his highest payday yet.[155]

DiCaprio starred as J. Edgar Hoover in Clint Eastwood's J. Edgar (2011). A biopic about Hoover, the film focuses on his career as an FBI director,
including an examination of his private life as an alleged closeted homosexual.[156] Critics felt that the film lacked coherence overall but commended
DiCaprio's performance.[157][158] Roger Ebert praised DiCaprio's ability to bring depth and nuance to the character, suggesting that his performance
conveyed aspects of Hoover's personality that were possibly even unknown to the man himself.[159] Also in 2011, he produced Catherine Hardwicke's
romantic horror film Red Riding Hood. Though it was named one of the ten worst films of 2011 by Time magazine,[160] it had moderate box-office
returns.[161] Also that year, DiCaprio's Appian Way produced George Clooney's political drama The Ides of March, an adaptation of Beau Willimon's
2008 play Farragut North.[162]

In 2012, DiCaprio starred as plantation owner Calvin Candie in Quentin Tarantino's Spaghetti Western, Django Unchained. After reading the script,
DiCaprio felt uncomfortable with the extent of racism portrayed in the film, but his co-stars and Tarantino convinced him not to sugarcoat it.[163] While
filming, DiCaprio accidentally cut his hand on glass, but continued filming, and Tarantino elected to use the take in the final product.[164] The film
received critical acclaim;[165] a writer for Wired magazine commended him for playing a villainous role and found his performance "blood-chilling".[166]
The film earned DiCaprio a Golden Globe Award nomination for Best Supporting Actor.[167] Django Unchained grossed $425 million worldwide on a
production budget of $100 million.[168]

In January 2013, DiCaprio said he would take a long break from acting to "fly around the world doing good for the environment".[169] That year, he had
four releases as an actor and a producer. His first was in the role of millionaire Jay Gatsby in Baz Luhrmann's The Great Gatsby, an adaptation of F.
Scott Fitzgerald's 1925 novel of the same name, co-starring Carey Mulligan and Tobey Maguire.[170] The film received mixed reviews from critics, but
DiCaprio's performance was praised and earned him the AACTA Award for Best Actor in a Leading Role.[171][172] Critic Rafer Guzman of Newsday
wrote that DiCaprio was not only "tough [...] but also vulnerable, touching, funny, a faker, a human. It's a tremendous, hard-won performance."[173] Matt
Zoller Seitz of Roger Ebert's website described his performance as "the movie's greatest and simplest special effect", and "iconic—maybe his career
best".[174] The film grossed $353 million worldwide, more than three times its budget.[175] Three films were produced by DiCaprio under Appian Way in
2013—the ensemble crime thriller Runner Runner, which The Guardian's Xan Brooks described as "a lazy, trashy film that barely goes through the
motions";[176] the commercially failed thriller Out of the Furnace; and the black comedy-drama The Wolf of Wall Street.[177][178]

DiCaprio reunited with Scorsese for the fifth time in The Wolf of the Wall Street, a film based on the life of stockbroker Jordan Belfort (played by
DiCaprio), who was arrested in the late 1990s for securities fraud and money laundering.[179][180] DiCaprio wanted to play Belfort ever since he had
read his autobiography and won a bidding war with Warner Bros. against Brad Pitt and Paramount Pictures for the rights to Belfort's memoir in
2007.[181][182] He was fond of Belfort's honest and unapologetic portrayal of his actual experiences in the book, and was inspired by the financial crisis
of 2007–2008 to make the film.[110] The Wolf of Wall Street received positive reviews for Scorsese's and DiCaprio's work together.[183] The Hollywood
Reporter's Todd McCarthy lauded DiCaprio for fully realizing his character's potential with a carefree performance.[184] Jonathan Romney of Film
Comment wrote that DiCaprio displays a great deal of comedic talent, excelling in "rubber-limbed slapstick" humor.[185] The film earned him the Golden
Globe Award for Best Actor – Motion Picture Musical or Comedy and nominations for a BAFTA Award for Best Actor in a Leading Role, as well as
Academy Awards for Best Actor and Best Picture.[186][187]

2014–present: Environmental documentaries and awards success


DiCaprio was an executive producer on Virunga, a 2014 British documentary film about four people fighting to protect the world's last mountain gorillas
from war and poaching.[188] The film premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival in April 2014,[189] and DiCaprio was nominated for the 2015 Primetime
Emmy Award for Outstanding Documentary or Nonfiction Special.[190] Cowspiracy: The Sustainability Secret was another documentary film that year
for which he was an executive producer—he took part in the new cut released exclusively on Netflix that September.[191] It explores the impact of
animal agriculture on the environment.[192]

In 2015, DiCaprio produced and played fur trapper Hugh Glass in Alejandro G. Iñárritu's survival drama The Revenant.
DiCaprio found his role in the film difficult; he had to eat a raw slab of bison's liver and sleep in animal
carcasses.[193][194] He also learned to shoot a musket, build a fire, speak two Native American languages (Pawnee
and Arikara) and apply ancient healing techniques.[193] Built on a budget of $135 million, the film earned $533 million
worldwide.[195] The film received positive reviews with particular praise for DiCaprio's acting.[196] Mark Kermode of The
Guardian wrote that DiCaprio shone with a performance that prioritizes physicality over speech,[197] and Nick De
Semlyen of Empire noted that he uplifted the film.[198] The film earned him numerous awards, including the Academy
Award, BAFTA, Critics' Choice, Golden Globe and SAG Award for Best Actor.[199][200][201] For the next three years,
DiCaprio narrated documentaries and served as a producer for films. In 2016, he was an executive producer for The
Ivory Game and Catching the Sun;[178] he also produced, hosted and narrated the documentary Before the Flood
about climate change.[202] He produced the crime drama Live by Night (2016), which received unenthusiastic reviews
and failed to recoup its $65 million production budget.[178][203] His next production ventures were in 2018—the

premiere of The Revenant in
2016
After producing and narrating the 2019 global warming documentary Ice on Fire,[206] DiCaprio returned to acting
following a four-year break in Quentin Tarantino's comedy-drama Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, which traces the
relationship between Rick Dalton (DiCaprio), an aging television actor and his stuntman, Cliff Booth (Brad Pitt).[207] To help the film's financing,
DiCaprio and Pitt agreed to take a pay cut, and they each received $10 million.[208] DiCaprio liked working with Pitt, and Tarantino described the pair as
the most exciting since Robert Redford and Paul Newman.[209][210] DiCaprio was fascinated with the film's homage to Hollywood and focus on the
friendship between his and Pitt's characters. He drew from real-life experience of witnessing the struggles and rejections of his actor friends in the
industry.[210] The film premiered at the 2019 Cannes Film Festival, where critics praised his and Pitt's performances.[211] A writer for Business Insider
called it one of the best performances of DiCaprio's career,[212] and Ian Sandwell of Digital Spy particularly liked the duo's chemistry, believing their
scenes together to be some of the film's strongest parts.[213] DiCaprio received nominations for an Oscar, a Golden Globe, a BAFTA Award and a
Screen Actors Guild Award for Best Actor.[214] The film earned $374 million against a budget of $90 million.[215]

In 2020, DiCaprio served as an executive producer for The Right Stuff, a television series adaption of the 1973 namesake book. After being in
development at National Geographic, it was released on Disney+.[216] That May, DiCaprio briefly featured in the finale of the miniseries The Last
Dance.[217] In 2021, DiCaprio appeared in Adam McKay's satirical comedy Don't Look Up. He spent five months changing the film's script with McKay
before agreeing to the part.[218] Starring alongside Jennifer Lawrence as two astronomers attempting to warn humanity about an extinction-level comet,
DiCaprio saw this film as an analogy of the world's indifference to the climate crisis. As a frequent supporter of environmentalism, DiCaprio said he has
often looked to star in and make films tackling issues related to it, something he found hard due to people's inability to listen. He praised McKay for
envisioning a project on how humans would react to a serious issue from a political, social and scientific standpoint.[219] While reviews for the film were
mixed, most critics praised DiCaprio's and Lawrence's performances;[220] journalists from Digital Spy and NDTV lauded their pairing.[221][222] DiCaprio
earned nominations for a Golden Globe and a BAFTA Award for the film.[223][224] It broke the record for the most views (152 million hours) in a single
week in Netflix history.[225]

DiCaprio next starred in Scorsese's crime drama Killers of the Flower Moon (2023) based on the book of the same name by David Grann,[226] for which
he was paid $30 million.[227] Initially signed for the heroic part of FBI agent Thomas Bruce White Sr., DiCaprio insisted on playing the morally complex
role of Ernest Burkhart, a nephew of murderer William King Hale, leading to extensive script rewrites.[228][229] Declaring it the best performance of
DiCaprio's career, IndieWire's David Ehrlich wrote that "his nuanced and uncompromising turn as the cretinous Ernest Burkhart mines new wonders
from the actor's long-standing lack of vanity".[230] He received another Golden Globe nomination for his performance.[231]

DiCaprio will next star in Paul Thomas Anderson's as-yet untitled film, co-starring Sean Penn and Regina Hall.[232]

Reception and acting style


Early in his career, DiCaprio gained a reputation for his reckless behavior and intense partying with a group of male celebrities dubbed "the Pussy
Posse" in the 1990s.[37][233] In an infamous article published by New York Magazine in 1998, journalist Nancy Jo Sales criticized the group as men
whose pursuit was to "chase girls, pick fights and not tip the waitress".[234] During an unknown activity, DiCaprio got himself and friend Justin Herwick
almost killed when his parachute failed to open, after which his instructor released an emergency core. In response, DiCaprio said he is fond of doing
things that scare him. John McCain, who was a United States Senator for Arizona, called him "an androgynous wimp".[233] DiCaprio found people's
perception of him exaggerated, adding, "They want you miserable, just like them. They don't want heroes; what they want is to see you fall."[10] Steven
Spielberg, who directed him in Catch Me If You Can, defended DiCaprio's reputation as a "party boy", believing it is a common behavior for young
people and describing him as a family-oriented person during the film's production.[235] Considering DiCaprio to be conscious of his public reputation,
The New York Times ' Caryn James credited him as one of the few actors to use his stardom to further social causes.[50] Carole Cadwalladr of The
Guardian said DiCaprio is "polite, charming, makes jokes, engages eye contact. And manages [...] to give almost no hint whatsoever of his actual
personality."[236]

DiCaprio is regarded as one of the finest actors of his generation.[b] In a 2022 readers' poll by Empire, he was

has led him to star in failed films like The Beach (2000),[50] but also his successful collaborations with Martin
Scorsese.[244][245] DiCaprio has described his relationship with Scorsese as dreamlike and admires his —DiCaprio on his love of acting[20]

knowledge of film, crediting the director with having taught him its history and importance.[236] Scorsese has
commented on DiCaprio's ability to repeatedly demonstrate emotion on screen.[246] Jesse Hassenger of The A.V. Club considers the duo's
collaborations—which earned them the 2013 National Board of Review (Spotlight Award)[247]—to be career-defining moments for both of them and as
vital as Scorsese's acclaimed collaborations with Robert De Niro.[248]

Author Michael K. Hammond wrote that DiCaprio built his star reputation by demonstrating his acting ability, and praised him for "revealing a character
while concealing the actor" and "disappearing into [his] roles".[249] According to Agnieszka Holland, who directed DiCaprio in Total Eclipse (1995),
DiCaprio is "one of the most mature actors" she has worked with and is "courageous" in his choice of roles.[250] Holland remarked that he does not rely
on method acting but rather on a trick that allows him to truly "become the character".[250] Meryl Streep, who co-starred with DiCaprio in Marvin's
Room, said he possesses the kind of unpredictability that makes his career difficult to classify, his life precarious and his work thrilling.[60] Writing for
The Observer, film critic Philip French has asserted that many characters portrayed by DiCaprio are in the process of becoming men. He wrote that
DiCaprio's inclination toward films about dysfunctional families and characters seeking father figures may allude to his own troubled childhood.[236]
DiCaprio often plays characters who themselves are playing roles, which Caryn James says looks simple on screen but requires sophisticated
acting.[50] He tends to play antiheroes and characters who lose their mental stability as the narrative progresses.[251][252] Derek Thompson of The
Atlantic argued that DiCaprio gives his best performances when playing "frauds and cheats and double-crossing liars and mercenaries".[251]

Several media publications, such as People,[253] Empire[254] and Harper's Bazaar,[255] have included DiCaprio in their listings of the most attractive
actors. In 1998, he sued Playgirl magazine over plans to publish a fully nude picture of him.[256] He has said he does not believe in focusing on
appearance—as this is only temporary and can negatively affect one's profession in the industry—and looks for career longevity instead.[257] In 2005,
DiCaprio was made a commander of the Ordre des Arts et des Lettres by the French Minister of Culture for his contributions to the arts.[258] In 2016, he
was named one of the 100 most influential people in the world by Time magazine.[259] He was included on Forbes' annual list of the world's highest-
paid actors in 2008 and from 2010 to 2016 with respective earnings of $45 million, $28 million, $77 million, $37 million, $39 million, $39 million,
$29 million and $27 million, topping the list in 2011. The magazine has commended DiCaprio's ability to star in risky, R-rated films that become box
office successes.[260] The Hollywood Reporter listed him as one of the 100 most powerful people in entertainment from 2016 to 2019.[261] A writer for
the same magazine credits DiCaprio as the rare actor to have a successful career "without ever having made a comic book movie, family film or pre-
branded franchise. Leo is the franchise."[262] Stacey Wilson Hunt, analyzing his career in New York Magazine in 2016, opined DiCaprio, unlike most of
his contemporaries, had not starred in a bad film in the previous ten years.[250] Of his success, DiCaprio says, "My attitude is the same as when I
started. I feel very connected to that fifteen-year-old kid who got his first movie."[210]

DiCaprio has named Robert De Niro and James Dean as two of his favorite and most influential actors, stating "There were a lot of great actors I really
fell in love with, but if I were to pick two, from different generations, it would be De Niro and James Dean".[207] When asked about a performance that
stayed with him the most, DiCaprio responded, "I remember being incredibly moved by Jimmy Dean, in East of Eden. There was something so raw and
powerful about that performance. His vulnerability [...] his confusion about his entire history, his identity, his desperation to be loved. That performance
just broke my heart."[263]

Paris Climate Change Agreement.[286]

At a 2016 meeting with Pope Francis, DiCaprio donated to charity and discussed environmental issues with
him. A few days later, possibly influenced by this meeting, the Pope said he would act in a charity film.[c]
DiCaprio traveled to Indonesia in early 2016 where he criticized the government's palm oil industry's slash-
and-burn forest clearing methods.[288] In July 2016, his foundation donated $15.6 million to help protect wildlife
and the rights of Native Americans, along with mitigating climate change.[289] That October, DiCaprio joined
Mark Ruffalo in support of the Standing Rock tribe's opposition to the Dakota Access Pipeline.[290]

In April 2017, DiCaprio protested against President Donald Trump's inaction on climate change by attending
the People's Climate March.[291] In July, a charity auction and celebrity concert arranged by DiCaprio's
foundation had raised over $30 million in one night.[292] The DiCaprio foundation donated $100 million in

Political views
DiCaprio endorsed Hillary Clinton for the 2016 presidential election.[295] In March 2020, DiCaprio attended a fundraiser for Joe Biden at the home of
Paramount Pictures executive Sherry Lansing.[296] Prior to the 2020 election, DiCaprio narrated a Netflix documentary series about voting rights,
stating, "All of us may have been created equal. But we'll never actually be equal until we all vote. So don't wait."[297] On social media, DiCaprio urged
voters to make a plan to cast their ballots[298] and to draw attention to voter suppression[299] and restrictive voter ID laws, citing VoteRiders as a source
of information and assistance.[300]

In 2023, DiCaprio testified during the trial against Prakazrel Michel, who is being accused of participating in a foreign influence campaign that was
aimed at the Obama and Trump administrations.[301]

Philanthropy
In 1998, DiCaprio and his mother donated $35,000 for a "Leonardo DiCaprio Computer Center" at a library in Los Feliz.[302] In May 2009, DiCaprio
joined Kate Winslet, director James Cameron and Canadian singer Celine Dion, in a campaign to raise money to financially support the fees of the
nursing home where Millvina Dean, a survivor of the RMS Titanic, was residing. DiCaprio and Winslet donated $20,000 to support Dean.[303] In 2010,
he donated $1 million to relief efforts in Haiti after the earthquake.[304] In 2011, DiCaprio joined the Animal Legal Defense Fund's campaign to release

DiCaprio's foundation donated $3 million to Australia bushfire relief efforts.[309] Amidst the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, the media announced
DiCaprio donated $10 million to support Ukraine,[d][311] although the news agency Associated Press suggested this amount was inaccurate.[310]

Personal life
DiCaprio is agnostic but does not identify as an atheist.[312] His personal life is the subject of widespread media
attention.[313] He rarely grants interviews and is reluctant to discuss his private life.[250][314] DiCaprio has been the
focus of various reports detailing his involvement with women aged 25 or younger, and has faced criticism for those
relationships.[e][f][321] In 1999, DiCaprio met Brazilian model Gisele Bündchen, whom he dated until 2005.[322] He was
romantically involved with Israeli model Bar Refaeli from 2005 to 2011. He later dated German fashion model Toni
Garrn from 2013 to 2014 and later in 2017.[323] DiCaprio was in a relationship with American model and actress Camila
Morrone from c. 2017 until 2022.[324] He has been dating Italian model Vittoria Ceretti since August 2023.[325]

DiCaprio owns houses in Los Angeles and apartments in New York City.[326] In 2009, he bought an island, Blackadore
Caye, off mainland Belize—on which he is set to open an environment-friendly resort[327][328]—and in 2014, he
purchased the original Dinah Shore residence designed by architect Donald Wexler in Palm Springs, California.[329]

In 2005, DiCaprio's face was severely injured when model Aretha Wilson hit him over the head with a broken bottle at

In 2017, when The Wolf of Wall Street producer Red Granite Pictures was involved in the 1Malaysia Development Berhad scandal, DiCaprio turned
over the gifts he received from business associates at the production company, including from fugitive businessman Jho Low, to the US
government.[332][333] These included a Best Actor Oscar trophy won by Marlon Brando, a $3.2 million Pablo Picasso painting and a $9 million Jean-
Michel Basquiat collage.[334]
