DiCaprio shifts focus to film production and personal life, stepping back from the spotlight
In recent years, Leonardo DiCaprio has shifted his career focus. Instead of making frequent on-screen appearances as he once did, the actor has primarily taken on the role of film producer and is spending more time on his personal life, particularly with his girlfriend, Vittoria Ceretti, who is 24 years younger than him.
A slowdown in his acting career
2023 has seen few notable film releases starring DiCaprio. His most recent film, Killers of the Flower Moon, a historical crime thriller directed by Martin Scorsese, was released in October 2023. Despite the film receiving multiple nominations at the 2024 Oscars, DiCaprio was shockingly snubbed from the Best Actor category, stirring controversy among fans.
DiCaprio will likely have a strong comeback in 2025 with major film projects lined up, including The Battle of Baktan Cross, Roosevelt, and Jim Jones. Additionally, he will be producing several upcoming high-profile projects like Captain Planet and Howl.
Focus on producing and competition with Brad Pitt
At present, DiCaprio is dedicating much of his time and energy to his production company, Appian Way Productions. However, according to In Touch, his company faces stiff competition from Brad Pitt’s Plan B Entertainment, which has secured much larger investments. This rivalry has reportedly strained the friendship between the two stars, turning them into competitors.
Private life and relationship
Though DiCaprio has taken a step back from the entertainment scene, his private life continues to attract attention. Recently, he was dragged into the scandal surrounding music mogul Diddy. However, sources clarified that DiCaprio has distanced himself from Diddy for years. On a more personal note, DiCaprio has been enjoying a peaceful summer with his girlfriend, often traveling aboard billionaire Jeff Bezos’ yacht, visiting places like Greece, Italy, and Spain.
DiCaprio is serious about his relationship with Ceretti and has even introduced her to his family. Insiders suggest that DiCaprio is looking for a long-term, stable relationship as he approaches the next chapter of his life.
Philanthropy and immense wealth
At 50, DiCaprio boasts a net worth of $300 million, with over $100 million invested in real estate, including a private island in Belize. On top of his wealth, DiCaprio is known for his extensive philanthropic efforts, having donated $80 million to environmental and community causes.
With several exciting film projects on the horizon and a flourishing production career, fans will have to wait just a bit longer to see DiCaprio return in full force on the big screen.
