Leonardo DiCaprio was born November 11, 1974 in Los Angeles, California. He is the only child of Irmelin and George Dicaprio, but they divorced when he was a toddler. DiCaprio is known for hhis good looks and edgy, unconventional roles. He started his career on television in the early 1990's, and progressed to bigger roles like "This Boy's Life" (1993), which was his first major film role. His biggest and most known role was "Titanic" (1997). His most recent films are "Inception" (2011) and "Django Unchained" (2012). Mostly raised by his mother, a legal secretary who was born in Germany. Dicaprio was always close to his father who loved art, so he took after his father and found his passion in acting early on in his life. His career shot off later on.

He started out in commericials and a teen heartthrob, but what made Leonardo DiCaprio most known and most famous was his leading role in "Titanic". He made $600,788,188 from the movie. Since then, his career shot off and he became one of the most known actors of all time, and in my opinion, one of the best actors.

Leonardo Dicaprio is a good actor because he can diversify any role; he can be any type of character and it still fits him. When you watch his movies, you can believe that he is actually the character. Most characters have a certain type of theater that they are usually in, but DiCaprio can be anyone. His characters can convince anyone, and the way his voice is when he acts draws your attention the whole time. You forget that you're uctually watching a movie when he is acting.
