Wonder Girls' Lim to interview Leonardo Dicaprio

Look who'll be interviewing Hollywood actor Leonardo Dicaprio, none other than Wonder Girls' member Lim!

It's been reported that on December 9, Lim will hold a solo interview with the one and only Dicaprio in Los Angeles for 'Entertainment Weekly'. The interview is promotion for his upcoming film 'The Revenant'.

'Entertainment Weekly's side told JoyNews24, "Lim, who was born in Hong Kong has English skills like no other. Although it's her first time being a reporter, she thinks of this opportunity to interview Dicaprio as an honor and was more than willing to do it. Please look forward to this celebrity to celebrity meeting."

SAG Awards predictions: Will Leonardo DiCaprio start awards romp against defending champ Eddie Redmayne

Leonardo DiCaprio ("The Revenant") is the frontrunner to win Best Actor at the SAG Awards according to the combined predictions of Expert film journalists we've polled, along with Gold Derby Editors who cover awards year-round, the Top 24 Users who got the top scores predicting last year's nominations and the more than 1000 total Users who make up the largest (and often savviest) bloc of predictors. But can he overtake the defending champ Eddie Redmayne, who won last year for "The Theory of Everything" and is back with "The Danish Girl"?

DiCaprio gets leading odds of 9/4 to finally win his first SAG honors after eight previous nominations from his peers.

He has contended four times for individual performances – "The Aviator" (Best Actor, 2004), "Blood Diamond" (Best Actor, 2006), "The Departed" (Best Supporting Actor, 2006) and "J. Edgar" (Best Actor, 2011) – along with four more bids for ensemble acting – "Marvin's Room" (1996), "Titanic" (1997), "The Aviator" (2004) and "The Departed" (2006) – but he has yet to win in any category.

Is this finally his year?

Remember that it was at last year's SAG Awards that Redmayne first pulled ahead of presumed frontrunner Michael Keaton ("Birdman") in the Best Actor race before ultimately claiming Oscar. Can he do it again? Last year was Redmayne's first individual acting recognition from SAG; he was also nominated twice for Best Film Ensemble, for "Theory" and "Les Miserables" (2012). But this year Redmayne ranks third with odds of 5/1.

If DiCaprio needs to worry about anyone, it may be Michael Fassbender ("Steve Jobs"), who holds second place with 3/1 odds. He has never won for an individual performance, but he did share a Best Film Ensemble victory with his co-stars in "Inglourious Basterds" (2009).

In fourth place with odds of 15/2 is Johnny Depp ("Black Mass"), and there's reason to believe he could be a strong threat to win. He pulled off a major upset for Best Actor in 2003 by defeating Bill Murray ("Lost in Translation") and eventual Oscar champ Sean Penn ("Mystic River") with his comic turn in "Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl."

Expected to round out the category is Matt Damon ("The Martian") with 11/1 odds. Like DiCaprio, Damon is still awaiting his first win. He has contended six times before: individual acting noms for "Good Will Hunting" (Best Actor, 1997), "Invictus" (Best Supporting Actor, 2009) and "Behind the Candelabra" (Best TV Movie/Miniseries Actor, 2013) as well as ensemble bids for "Good Will," "Saving Private Ryan" (1998) and "The Departed" (2006).

So if DiCaprio wins SAG, does he have Oscar in the bag? This guild is a strong predictor of the academy's individual acting awards. 81% of winners (17 out of 21) in this category line up with Oscar, including the last 11 in a row.

The four years that the guild and academy disagreed were consecutive, though it depends on how you count Benicio Del Toro. He won Best Actor at SAG in 2000 for "Traffic," while the academy recognized him in the supporting category instead. That was good news for Russell Crowe, who took the Best Actor Oscar for "Gladiator" that year.

Crowe won SAG the following year for "A Beautiful Mind," but that time the Oscars went with Denzel Washington ("Training Day").

In 2002, Daniel Day-Lewis won the first of his three SAG Awards for "Gangs of New York," but the Oscar went to Adrien Brody, who became the youngest-ever Best Actor champ for "The Pianist."

2003 was the last disagreement: the aforementioned Johnny Depp won SAG for "Pirates of the Caribbean" while Sean Penn won Oscar for "Mystic River."

Because of the close correlation between SAG and Oscar for Best Actor, this is one of the most important races to watch in determining the ultimate Oscar champ.

May just be my imagination, but it seems like Leo has been wearing grey more since we all discussed how great he looked in that grey

 

Tks for new Revenant/Hardy clip, I do hope that Tom gets some award attention as well :D
