1. Leo is a childhood buddy of Tobey Maguire, star of the Spider-Man series.

DiCaprio and Maguire vowed to struggle through Hollywood and help each other get parts, and now when they both are doing really well, they often get together and party hard.

Currently, Leo's rumoured to join Tobey in the Marvel superhero world as his name is being tossed around for the role of Captain America.
