Spotlight On... Leonardo DiCaprio
Leonardo DiCaprio has been acting on screen since childhood, and today is one of Hollywood's most sought-after and talented actors. He earned his first Academy Award nomination when he was still a teenager for his astounding and mesmerizing supporting role in "What's Eating Gilbert Grape" (1993) alongside Johnny Depp. Following his role as Romeo in Baz Luhrmann's "Romeo + Juliet", he starred in his biggest blockbuster, "Titanic" alongside Kate Winslet. His subsequent films include "Catch Me If You Can", "The Departed", "Revolutionary Road", "Shutter Island", and "Inception". He has been nominated two times for the Academy Award for Best Actor for "The Aviator" (2004) and "Blood Diamond" (2006). This year he stars as J. Edgar Hoover in Clint Eastwood's "J. Edgar", a role which could finally earn him his Oscar that he was robbed of back in 1993.
