Product Description
Book Description
Hailed as the best actor of his generation when he was only 20 years old, and with only three films under his belt, Leonardo DiCaprio shocked Hollywood by turning down a movie with Sharon Stone because he thought it was too commercial. But then he had already passed up the role of Robin in Batman Forever which he felt was too mundane. In another figure, such confidence might be read as arrogance, but DiCaprio seems set to prove the depth of his cool assurance.
Hailed as the best actor of his generation when he was only 20 years old, and with only three films under his belt, Leonardo DiCaprio shocked Hollywood by turning down a movie with Sharon Stone because he thought it was too commercial. But then he had already passed up the role of Robin in Batman Forever which he felt was too mundane. In another figure, such confidence might be read as arrogance, but DiCaprio seems set to prove the depth of his cool assurance.
His stunning good looks were what first brought him to the public eye, but his third film, the off-the-wall surprise hit What's Eating Gilbert Grape, showed that he possessed a rare acting talent. His role as Arnie won him an Oscar nomination. Rapturous critical acclaim followed when he took the male lead in The Basketball Diaries, but DiCaprio refused to rest on his laurels. He starred opposite Diane Keaton in Marvin's Room and he was an award-winning wild Romeo in Romeo and Juliet.
He is the star of James Cameron's Titanic; the biggest selling movie ever, which has escalated Leonardo into super stardom status with it's phenomenal success. In his next film he will be playing the dual role of King Louis XIV/Philipe in The Man in the Iron Mask directed by Randall Wallace, and starring alongside Jeremy Irons and Gerard Depardieu.
In the same series as Plexus' successful The River Phoenix Album, The Leonardo DiCaprio Album gives a revealing look into the life of Hollywood's hottest property. Filled with large format photographs of DiCaprio, in colour and black and white, it has proved to have a massive appeal to the hundreds of thousands of DiCaprio fans, both male and female.
Brian Robb, a film journalist and writer from Edinburgh, is author of the highly acclaimed River Phoenix: A Short Life, Johnny Depp: A Modern Rebel and Brad Pitt: The Rise to Stardom, all published by Plexus.
