Meer over het boek

Leonardo DiCaprio was born on November 11, 1974. "I’m the king of the world!" was Leonardo DiCaprio's cry as he stood at the bow of the Titanic. The film shattered all records and propelled him to superstardom! Leonardo is far from his beginnings as an extra in TV series before landing his first major film role in Romeo and Juliet (1995). He built his career on captivating performances in films like Catch Me If You Can (2002) and The Departed (2006) by Martin Scorsese. In 2005, he was nominated for an Oscar and won the Golden Globe for Best Actor for his performance in Aviator (Martin Scorsese). A multi-talented artist with a meteoric career, he is an environmentalist who has dedicated himself to humanitarian causes around the world and has never hesitated to express his political views, particularly in support of the Democrats. In cinema, he has worked alongside the greatest actresses for nearly 15 years, but in his private life, he remains an enigma, and his perpetual single status makes him one of the most sought-after actors. He has been engaged to some of the most beautiful women in the world (Gisele Bündchen, Bar Refaeli), but he does not seem ready to settle down. Unpredictable, Leonardo always makes bold film choices. A great perfectionist, he is undoubtedly one of the most bankable actors of his generation.
