Leonardo DiCaprio has been nominated for an Oscar five times — but he’s never won one.
For "The Revenant," in which he's starring this December, he slept in an animal carcass, ate raw bison, and swam in freezing rivers.
But that's not the craziest thing he's done in his dogged pursuit of an Oscar.
For "Django Unchained," Leo actually cut his hand on glass in a dinner scene. He didn't flinch, and that take went in the final movie. For "The Wolf of Wall Street," Leo dragged himself across the ground for several yards — in multiple takes. While preparing for "Blood Diamond," he's rumored to have hung out with former mercenaries, soldiers, and smugglers from Sierra Leone.
Should Leo get an Oscar before he hurts himself too badly? Maybe. Or not, we're enjoying this.
