With our Leonardo DiCaprio festival in full swing on eMovies Extra – we thought it might be a good time to find out fun facts about the actor.
Watch a Leonardo DiCaprio film every Thursday at 8PM.
Here are 7 things you didn’t know about the hunky Hollywood star:
1. Leo’s mother named him Leonardo because she was pregnant and looking at a Da Vinci painting in a museum when he first kicked.
2. An agent wanted to convince him to change his name because it sounded too ethnic.
3. Leo has a daughter. He adopted her from an orphanage while shooting the movie Blood Diamond in South Africa. Although the girl is not living with him, he sends a monthly cheque and talks to her regularly over the phone.
4. Although the 42-year-old actor has dated a lot of women – he’s never been married.
5. Leo owns an island off the coast of Belize.
6. He had a few near-death experiences including a shark attack and a skydiving accident.
7. After being nominated so many times Leo finally won an Academy Award for Best Actor in 2016.
So set your reminders and watch Leonardo DiCaprio in action every Thursday at 8PM on eMovies Extra!
