Leonardo Dicaprio Biography Flash a weekly Biography.
Leonardo DiCaprio has found himself in the headlines this week for both personal reflections and delicate business talks in Hollywood. First, DiCaprio made a rare and heartfelt appearance on social media, taking to his Instagram Stories to honor the late Diane Keaton after news broke of her passing on October 11. Calling Keaton “one of a kind” and “a legend, an icon, and a truly kind human being,” Leo spoke about the impact she had on his early career. He reminisced about sharing the screen with Keaton at just 18 years old in the critically acclaimed drama Marvin’s Room, where they starred alongside Meryl Streep and Robert De Niro. Coverage from both Hola! and Parade highlight that his tribute was deeply personal, marking one of the few times DiCaprio has shared such memories in public this year. It’s clear that this loss resonated far beyond social media, as fellow cast members including Meryl Streep and De Niro also issued statements of remembrance, and Diane’s legacy is being celebrated across the industry, with scenes from Marvin’s Room resurfacing and being discussed on TV segments like those from Graeme O’Neil.
On the business front, Leonardo continues to make waves behind the scenes in Hollywood, stirring up industry executives as he hesitates to sign on for a cameo in David Fincher’s much-anticipated sequel to Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, provisionally titled Cliff Booth. According to World of Reel, Netflix has become increasingly frustrated as DiCaprio drags his feet on accepting a $3 million offer for a single day of shooting—a figure viewed as generous for a cameo but still below the standard fee for one of Hollywood’s most bankable stars. Despite his long-held stance against sequels, DiCaprio is technically available with his 2025 schedule wide open, outside of his leisure time in Ibiza. Rumors earlier this year also surfaced about him backing out of a summer shoot for Damien Chazelle’s Evel Knievel biopic, which raises speculation about his continued pickiness with new roles. However, he is still attached to headline Michael Mann’s Heat 2 and is set to start work with Martin Scorsese on What Happens at Night in January 2026, keeping anticipation for his future projects alive.
No new red carpet sightings or public appearances have been reported in the past 24 hours, and aside from the Diane Keaton tribute, his social media remains mostly quiet. This period of reflection and sabbatical in DiCaprio’s career, punctuated by emotional tributes and major studio negotiations, could ultimately shape how this era is remembered in his biography.
