DiCaprio takes a break from acting to play a new role: earth activist

1/20/2013

If you're looking to make a movie in the near future and think Leonardo DiCaprio would be perfect for the starring role, you might want to make other plans. The "Django Unchained" star told the German daily Bild, "I am a bit drained. I am going to take a long, long break. I've done three films in two years and I'm just worn out." (Of course, Nicolas Cage probably made three movies in the time it took DiCaprio to give this interview, but he doesn't seem to try all that hard.) During his time off, Leo says he wants to "improve the world a bit. I will fly around and promote environmental awareness." Because the best way to help the environment is flying a fuel-guzzling jet across the globe. [Source]
