Leonardo Wilhelm DiCaprio (born November 11, 1974) is a United States actor who garnered world wide fame for his role as Jack Dawson in Titanic. Dicaprio has starred in many successful feature films since, including William Shakespeare's Romeo + Juliet (1996), The Beach (2000), Catch Me If You Can (2002), and Blood Diamond (2006). He has been director Martin Scorsese's favorite actor to direct. He has appeared perennially with Scorsese in a majority of his most recent films, including Gangs of New York (2002), The Aviator (2004), and The Departed (2006), causing people to compare this relationship to the one actor Robert De Niro benefited from early on in his career.
