Acting career
Leonardo DiCaprio's acting career began in the late 1980s, where he made a few appearances in commercials and minor roles in educational films and series. The first major attention he received in 1993 through the role of "Arnie Grape", a disabled boy, in the film "Gilbert Grape - Somewhere in Iowa" on the side of Johnny Depp. Leonardo's acting performance was honored with the nomination for an Oscar in the category "Best Supporting Actor".
In the following years DiCaprio was able to land a leading role in several films and gain ever greater popularity with Hollywood directors. James Cameron hired him in 1997 for his groundbreaking role in Titanic alongside Kate Winslet. Titanic has won eleven Academy Awards and is the second most successful film of all time to date. Leonardo DiCaprio became a great teen idol and heartthrob.
Inspired by his success with Titanic, Leonardo DiCaprio took on other roles in films such as "Celebrity" and "The Beach", which, however, brought little success. In 2002 Martin Scorsese hired him for his new film "Gangs of New York". DiCaprio was finally able to shed his boyish image in the film epic and shine with his serious and brutal leading role as "Amsterdam Vallon". In the same year he was booked by Steven Spielberg for the film "catch me if you can".
In 2005 the successful collaboration with Martin Scorsese continued. He employed Leonardo one more time for the lead role in the film "The Aviator", for which he received the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor and was nominated for an Oscar in the same category. In 2007 the director and the actor shot "Departed - Unter Feinden". In the same year Leonardo DiCaprio stood in front of the camera for "Blood Diamond", for which he again received an Oscar nomination for best leading actor. In 2008 he played leading roles in the drama "Times of Turmoil" and the thriller "The Man Who Never Lived"
In 2010 the fifth collaboration with Scorsese followed in the film "Shutter Island" (4 Oscars), which is the most successful film with DiCaprio to date after Titanic. In early 2011, the successful actor worked with Clint Eastwood on the film adaptation of the life of J. Edgar Hoover. In “Django Unchained” DiCaprio was to appear in front of the camera for the first time under the direction of Quentin Tarantino. From the end of 2011 to the beginning of 2012, Leo took on the role of the great Gatsby in the film of the same name.
In the film "The Wolf of Wall Street" he worked with Martin Scorsese for the fifth time and received his Oscar nominations four and five. This time as the best actor in the role of Jordan Belfort and as the producer for the best film.
In September 2014, filming began on the western thriller "The Revenant". The film hit theaters in early 2016 and became an incredible success. Oscar nomination number six was therefore not long in coming. This time, however, actually by winning the coveted trophy
