The actor has been enjoying a bit of a break recently, what with his next movie The Wolf Of Wall Street being pushed back for a December, possible January 2014 release.

In the film based on Jordan Belfort's memoir of the same name, Leo plays the crooked stockbroker  who was convicted of fraud, money-laundering, and running a boiler room for which he spent 22 months in prison.Belfort also had a serious drug addiction, which fueled his heavy partying lifestyle as well as his reputation on Wall Street during the 1990s.

The movie marks the fifth collaboration between Leonardo and director Martin Scorsese, having already worked together on Shutter Island, The Departed, The Aviator and Gangs Of New York.
The film features a respectable ensemble cast including Jonah Hill, Jean Dujardin, Matthew McConaughey, Jon Favreau, Kyle Chandler, Rob Reiner, Joanna Lumley, Spike Jonze and Margot Robbie.
DiCaprio will be hoping for better recognition and critical acclaim with this film after The Great Gatsby received mixed reviews.

The Chicago Reader said: 'Luhrmann is exactly the wrong person to adapt such a delicately rendered story, and his 3D feature plays like a ghastly Roaring 20s blowout at a sorority house.'
But The New York Times gave a far more positive review, saying: the adaptation was 'a lot of fun [and] less a conventional movie adaptation than a splashy, trashy opera, a wayward, lavishly theatrical celebration of the emotional and material extravagance that Fitzgerald surveyed with fascinated ambivalence'.
While Leo's iMDb does not show any future projects on the go, he could always put his name in the ring for Fifty Shades Of Grey, according to director Oliver Stone.
The filmmaker told The Wall Street Journal that Leo was his top choice for Christian Grey, a Seattle billionaire with love for sadomasochism, previously meant to be played by Charlie Hunnam who dropped out last week.
