The invitation could have just been through the friend and nothing more. But It reminds me of the past when Gabrielle Wrede and others first got excited about getting invited to dinner with Leo and tweeted about being invited to dinner. (For the first time) Whom we know Leo actually knows now. I guess we'll never know for sure what this recent girl meant.

Leonardo DiCaprio Is Looking Awfully Handsome These Days

Leonardo DiCaprio made one good-looking presenter at the Directors Guild of America Honors at the DGA Theater in NYC on Thursday. The handsome star was all smiles when he hit the stage to recognize editor Thelma Schoonmaker, who gave the actor a big hug when she accepted the award. Over the years, she's worked on several of Leo's movies, including everything from Gangs of New York to The Aviator to The Wolf of Wall Street.

Leo's appearance comes just a few weeks after he teamed up with other celebrities for a good cause at last month's Global Citizen Festival. Meanwhile, a few weeks ago, he was spotted riding bikes with some of his friends, and the trailer for his new movie, The Revenant, was recently released. Keep reading to see all the best pictures of Leo at the DGA Honors!

Leos show with Q-Tip just ended!!! It was pretty entertaining, it was mostly Dave and Chris talking about comedy and Leo was REALLY shy in the beginning. Like he barely spoke for the first 35-40 minutes, except for some political talk and some UFC talk. They tried to ask him questions and he would just give short answers and wouldn't comment on other people talking etc. Then Leo really started opening up, asking Dave and Chris questions about comedy, and they all started playing their favorite rap songs and Leo listed some Ice Cube and played it and he was rapping along to it! It was great! I wish it was longer because damn Leo really started opening up then it ended :/ Leo liked Straight Outa Compton, thinks Rhonda Rousy is a badass and liked Dave Chapelle's impersonation of Prince :p 

 

Hopefully it will be up for all you to hear soon :hehe:

 

It was entertaining though, and the station was playing some AWESOME songs!

‘The Revenant’ Budget Soars to $135 Million As New Regency Foots the Bill (Exclusive)
Arnon Milchan is paying tens of millions in overages for Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu‘s new anticipated masterpiece

There’s a saying that you can’t put a price on greatness, but if you could, it might be around $165 million, or about much as Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu‘s upcoming revenge drama “The Revenant” is now believed to cost. The ambitious drama has had its original budget soar from $95 million, multiple individuals with knowledge of the production have told TheWrap.

The final bill, once tax credits are counted, is estimated to be $135 million, multiple individuals told TheWrap.

“It was very difficult production,” said one of the individuals. “We were really biting off a lot more than we could chew. The movie just kept getting bigger and bigger, more complicated, the weather — waiting for the light to be a certain way.”

Leonardo DiCaprio stars in “The Revenant” as 19th-century fur trader Hugh Glass, who is brutally attacked by a bear and left for dead by members of his own hunting team. In a quest to survive, Glass endures unimaginable hardship as well as the betrayal of his confidant John Fitzgerald (Tom Hardy). Guided by sheer will and the love of his family, Glass must survive a vicious winter in pursuit of redemption.

Twentieth Century Fox is set to give “The Revenant” an awards-qualifying run in select theaters on Christmas Day before going wide on January 8. History has also shown that the holiday season may not be ideal for such a dark, violent movie, as proven by underperforming R-rated releases like “The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo” — though Quentin Tarantino‘s similarly violent and R-rated “Django Unchained” succeeded with a late-December launch in 2012.

Fortunately for its distributor, “The Revenant” wasn’t financed by 20th Century Fox. Instead, Arnon Milchan‘s New Regency will foot the majority of the bill along with Brett Ratner‘s RatPac, Chinese company Alpha Pictures and Empyre, which is a film fund based in Abu Dhabi and Brazil.

New Regency will also have to swallow most of the budget overages because of budget caps that protected Milchan’s partners. Originally Milchan’s company, which produced Gonzalez Inarritu’s 2014 Oscar winner “Birdman” as well as 2013’s “12 Years a Slave,” envisioned a $60 million cost based simply on the involvement of Gonzalez Inarritu and DiCaprio. By the time the film actually went before cameras, the budget was pegged at $95 million — a high price tag for a dark period drama starring men with heavy beards.

“New Regency stands by the decisions we made. The work speaks for itself,” said a spokesperson for New Regency.

The initial cost continued to climb at every turn, according to insiders close to the production. The decision to shoot the movie sequentially to capture the seasons in order led to a significant budget commitment, as did the choice to shoot with only natural light by award-winning cinematographer Emmanuel Lubezki.

But the production then went into an unplanned six-week hiatus because of a crushing lack of snow in Canada.

“We had tremendous weather problems,” said one insider close to the movie. “It was freezing and snowing when it wasn’t meant to be. And when it wasn’t meant to be, it was. It wouldn’t snow. Our movie was really reliant on snow. That was a huge hit.”

The entire production had to move to Argentina from Calgary, Canada in search of snow. The six-day shoot in Patagonia in August cost an unplanned $10 million, according to one production insider. “That was an extremely big hit financially,” the insider said.

During the hiatus, veteran producer Mary Parent was asked to join the production to get the project back on schedule.

Another insider said that Milchan declined to rein in his star director.

“I don’t think the studio put in stopgaps to keep the costs down,” the individual said, such as declining to reshoot scenes multiple times. “There were a lot of indulgences he got that could’ve been a ‘no.’ Alejandro is a little bit like a child. He tests the parameters all the time. When you don’t say ‘no,’ he takes advantage.”

At stake is a likely Oscar run. If the film were to win Best Picture, it would secure Milchan his first Academy Award statuette.

Though New Regency is technically in pursuit of its third-straight Best Picture win following “12 Years a Slave” and “Birdman,” Milchan wasn’t named as a qualifying producer on the last two victors.

One knowledgeable insider claimed that New Regency has hired “every awards consultant known to man” to strategize an Oscar campaign for “The Revenant” — evidence of the studio’s emphasis on awards prestige which have also been known to boost a film’s box office prospects.

20th Century Fox passed on the opportunity to finance the film for several reasons, according to knowledgeable executives. Not only was the studio worried about the commercial prospects of a bleak, violent movie starring two handsome actors whose famous faces would be obscured by grimy beards, but the original screenplay neglected its female characters. The film’s most recent trailer emphasized the presence of DiCaprio’s family in an effort to nod in the direction of female audiences.

Insiders allege that New Regency isn’t worried about going over-budget if the film wins Academy Awards. While New Regency insiders insist that “The Revenant” is a commercial play, others suggest the company was more invested in backing a brilliant work of art.

Tks for more information about Leo's radio visit with pal Qtip Flower%20for%20you.gif

I wasn't able to listen to it straight through , but I did hear Leo say his favorite rap group right now is Gang Star , that he

likes Biggie Sweet

I heard the part where he mentioned that the one movie he wish he had done was Boogie Nights

Like you mentioned at times when I was able to listen , I never heard Leo speaking at all

I wondered since you heard it all , did Leo or QTip ever mention how long they've been pals ?

Hopefully someone will upload the entire segment

Jade

Posting below some great comments Michael E Mann posted on his Facebook about Leo in response to others who asked him about his encounter with Leo last night in NY

 

Megan Herbert Fantastic to see Leo putting his money and influence where his mouth (and heart) is. I'd heard he was a big fan of yours. Did he get tongue tied? :)

Michael E. Mann thanks Megan--Leo was awesome. He's thoughtful, informed, unassuming, engaged--everything a fan of his might like to imagine he is. I'm thankful that someone like Leo is willing to devote so much time and effort to the cause of informing the public about the climate threat. I think it's really making a difference.

 

Jo Richards Great stuff! :)

Michael E. Mann thanks Jo. Leo is the real deal--smart, caring, looking to use his celebrity to effect positive change. It was a pleasure to have an extended conversation w/ him (and knock down a drink or two while we were at it) :)

Irene Chang A gloomy subject, but this actor has reach, smarts, and top-notch communication skills.

Michael E. Mann indeed, and all of that was in full display in my interactions w/ him.
