The Leonardo DiCaprio films available on Netflix: 19. On his 46 th birthday, let us take a look at the legend’s films that are available for streaming on Netflix. Loved and adored by all, Leo has found his tribe at Hollywood which includes A-listers Brad Pitt, Kate Winslet, Jonah Hill, Luka Haas, Kevin Connolly, Tobey Maguire, Bradley Cooper, Cameron Diaz, Tom Hardy and many more.Īs ardent fans, if there are three things that we are grateful for, it would definitely be Leonardo DiCaprio’s smile, his charm, and the fact that he did not allow himself to be peer-pressurised into changing his name into a slightly easier and Americanised “Lenny Williams or something”. The film follows the FBI investigations regarding the Oklahoma murders in the 1920s which allegedly had underlying ties to oil deposits. So that means this must be pretty good.”įans are waiting eagerly for Leonardo DiCaprio’s next film, Killers of the Flower Moon at Paramount, which is yet another Scorsese-DiCaprio combo. Tarantino, who is always praising his long-time friend, compared DiCaprio’s limited presence in multiplexes to that of Dwayne Johnson and the like, by saying, “One of the things I like about Leo is he just doesn’t plug himself into two movies a year… he kind of stands alone today, like Al Pacino or Robert De Niro was in the ’70s, where they weren’t trying to do two movies a year - they could do anything they wanted, and they wanted to do this. However, within the last two decades of his career, a hint of merit and perseverance, he has curated a brand “of excellence”. In his initial years, DiCaprio has been vehemently criticised as “your average, no-depth, standard kid with blond hair”. As an environmentalist and philanthropist, his speech included his growing concerns about climate change, and he concluded his speech by saying, “Let us not take this planet for granted, I do not take tonight for granted”, which received thunderous applause from the audience. Cheered on by the audience, the actor’s win was definitely the most desirable. 2016 proved to be a curse-breaker for him, as he finally won the Academy Award for his brilliance and resilience in the film The Revenant, after being nominated for the sixth time. However, as compensation, he has had to give up his ‘award-winning luck’. He has certain ground-breaking ideas and mysterious tricks up his sleeve which often leaves the director spellbound.ĭiCaprio has ruled the hearts of the audience for decades with his boyish charm and exquisite mastery over his craft. He is not a classic American method-actor he does not use anecdotes from a character’s personal life. His roles are scattered all over the spectrum starting from a scallywag to a notorious gangster, from a vicious plantation owner to a lovesick billionaire, from a fraudster stockbroker to a dream-thief, Leo has done it all (although, we would say that he definitely has a knack for playing fraudulent billionaire). Not everybody is like that.”ĭiCaprio has had a wonderful career where he has collaborated with legendary directors like Quentin Tarantino, Alejandro Gonzalez Iñárritu, Christopher Nolan, Steven Spielberg and more delivering incredible performances with every passing movie, he cannot be typecast into a particular genre. It just reads, and you can connect with him. It’s the look on his face, the look in his eyes. The director gushed over DiCaprio’s brilliance by saying, “A key thing about Leo - and I always tell him this - is he’s a natural screen actor. Hollywood’s humble and down-to-earth ‘it’ boy has been Scorsese’s perfect muse. With international stardom at his feet, the actor later went on to become Scorsese’s blue-eyed boy (literally), and starred in many successful features. Following a few unsuccessful commercial stints, in 2002, he finally landed two successful features in Catch Me If You Can and Gangs of New York the latter marked the beginning of his association with Martin Scorsese. In 1997, Titanic catapulted DiCaprio to superstardom and he has not had to look back ever since. Following his role in 1993 film This Boy’s Life, he received acclaim and an Oscar nomination for his supporting role as a mentally impaired boy in What’s Eating Gilbert Grape. Having begun his career in sit-coms in the late 1980s, it was not until 1993 that Leo starred in a major film. A stellar performer, DiCaprio was born in Los Angeles, California, on November 11, 1974, surrounded by the bright and looming sign of Hollywood. “I just want to keep doing what I’m doing and hopefully people will watch my movies.” -Leonardo DiCaprioĮnigmatic and charming, dashing and captivating, Leonardo DiCaprio’s presence on-screen is iconic and sublime.
