The trend on social media is to hate on Leo for absolutely no reason, it's a time where talking bad about Leo is COOL.  🙄 :ninja: 

 

But the worst part to me is this is happening for years and what Leo did of so bad? Great original movies at an era that cinema is sooo boring that the biggest sucess are sequences of movies made in 90's and early 2000's or comic books... 

 

Anyway, I guess it's the old human frustation with their own miserable lives, they simply can't stand seeing sucessful people living their lives the way they want. 

Let them hate on Leo as much as they can. This man will go down in history' as one of the greatest ever, a real talent.

 

It's not about achieving success, but sustaining it for so long. How many out there can still sustain it? I am pretty sure the number of fans still outweigh the number of stupid haters.❤️

Haha you're so right 💯 He's the worst narcissist and clearly carrying some hero issues on screen which he is so less in real life.

On point! He has some deep issues with all these hero-centric movies and stunts he performs to showcase how big and bold he is, when he is actually what we already know he is.

Cute words from Kate Winslet about Leo in her new interview:

 

Winslet is still close to Leonardo DiCaprio, her Titanic co-star. She tells me about a dream she had when they were filming 2008’s Revolutionary Road, in which she gave him a paperweight engraved with the words: 'Wherever you go, I will go too,' and he produced a ring engraved with the same words.

"I told him the dream and he cried," she says. He actually cried? "Let’s say he was very moved. And at the end of the shoot, we’d gone and done it for each other." She still has the ring. "We’ve known each other a long time! I’ve known Leo longer than I’ve known my children and my husband!"

‘Devil in the White City' is Still Happening — Martin Scorsese to Direct?

The headline above is wishful thinking, but it makes sense.

Last week, Martin Scorsese hinted that he wanted to shoot a limited series and that, unlike his “Boardwalk Empire” and “Vinyl,” he’d want to direct every single episode.

I found that if I were to do a series, and I tried, I was only able to direct the pilot episodes. With “Vinyl,” by the end of the first season, I felt like I should have been more involved.

Here comes the news, from producer Stacy Sher, that Scorsese’s long-gestating limited series, “Devil in the White City,” is still very much happening. Sher says everyone is still involved, including Scorsese and Leonardo Dicaprio who are, for the time being, just producing.

Based on the book by Erik Larson, “Devil in the White City” tells the story of an architect and a serial killer, both trying to leave their mark on the city, and the true events that changed their lives forever at the 1893 Chicago World Fair.

At some point in the 2010s, “Devil in the White City” was supposed to be Leonardo DiCaprio and Martin Scorsese’s next film together.A few years later, in 2019, it got turned into a HULU limited series. Todd Field was set to direct with Keanu Reeves cast as the lead. Then, late last year, they both dropped out of the project. At the same time, THR reported that the series was dead and looking for a new home.

’Devil’ has been in the works now for more than a decade. As mentioned, it was originally set to be a DiCaprio/Scorsese film, but wouldn’t it be great if both talents could turn it into a 7- or 8-hour series? Right now, and based on last week’s intel, it looks as though Scorsese only has two movie projects he’s deeply involved in: “The Life of Jesus” and “Home.”

 

 

That would be very great!!!

This ain't surprising 🤣 In the end it's all about money in Hollywood no matter how many times they claim otherwise lol

 

So if Leo ever makes another Apple film, it wouldn't be in theaters after KOTFM failed to live up to expectations. That's how fast things happen in Hollywood.

 

Report: Apple is “Done" With Wide Theatrical Releases

Yesterday it was announced that Apple nixed the Sept. 20 wide release date for Jon Watts’ “Wolfs,” starring George Clooney and Brad Pitt. The film will now open only in select theaters before streaming on Apple TV+ the following week on Sept. 27.

Weirdly enough, Apple also announced that Watts would return to write, direct, and produce a sequel that would bring Clooney and Pitt’s “fixers” back for more hijinks.

The main questions that should be asked here are 1) why would Apple cancel almost all theatrical plans for a movie starring A-listers George Clooney and Brad Pitt? 2) Is there a lack of confidence in “Wolfs” performing well? If that was even the case, then why greenlight another expensive sequel?

Well, a source reached out to Jeff Sneider, who is reporting that “Apple is done with wide theatrical releases for all of its movies.” This would also explain why they gave Steve McQueen’s “Blitz,” a heavily Oscar-buzzed title, a tepid one-week theatrical run in November.

Sneider’s source adds that there will be one last exception, and that’s Apple’s Brad Pitt movie “F1”, set for release next summer, and being distributed by Warner Bros. After that, Apple is taking the Netflix route and shunning the theatrical experience for good.

Here’s Sneider’s source explaining Apple’s current mindset:

Apple’s all about good PR, and they don’t need the bad PR from all these movies not doing well, is how the individual explained it to me, though they noted that the decision wasn’t a reflection on Wolfs, which was “actually pretty good, [and] would’ve done fine.

This is no doubt a decision made in response to Apple’s recent expensively produced box office disappointments, “Killers of the Flower Moon,” “Napoleon,” “Argylle,” and “Fly Me to the Moon”. This “pivot” is, more or less, an admission from Apple that their wide-release strategy isn’t working out, or at least, isn’t worth the bad PR that comes with failing to meet certain expectations.
