Earlier today the Golden Globe nominations were announced. I’m happy to inform that Leo’s new project Django Unchained, which is due in theaters Christmas 2012, has been nominated for several awards. One of the nominations is for Leonardo DiCaprio in his supporting role in Django Unchained. I would like to congratulate Leo and everyone that is on the Django Unchained team!

Check out another new trailer of Leonardo DiCaprio in Quentin Tarantino’s Django Unchained. Enjoy!

In a recent interview Jamie Foxx talked about his Django Unchained co-star Leonardo DiCaprio. You can find the interview below.

“Let me tell you something, first of all, he’s 6′ 2,”" Jamie told us before the Comic-Con panel for the Quentin Tarantino-directed film. “He comes in there with all the good looks, you know, he’s on the tabloids with the models and everybody’s thinking, ‘Is he going to be that guy?’”
Jamie continued, “Then he is absolutely his character. It makes you go back to your hotel room and really get yourself together because you know you have to be tight. I think that it was great for him, because I know he shies away from the commercial films. He doesn’t like a commercial film, he wants to be the student.
“There is one scene, I think I can let out of the bag, where he finds us out, who we are, and he’s angry with us and slams his hand on the table every take,” Jamie explained. “Every take is hard. I’m like, ‘Wow.’ And one take, somehow the shot glass slid to where his hand is supposed to be, slams his hand on the table and breaks the shot glass.”
“It goes through his hand. There’s blood. And he’s still going. And I’m like a little girl, I’ve got my hands up,” Jamie recalled, switching into a girly tone. “‘He’s so courageous! He’s an Avenger!‘…People came up, gave him a standing ovation, if that’s any indication of how he is. He was amazing.” 

Django Unchained is in theaters December 25, 2012.

Leo has always expressed his deep love for films since early on in his childhood. Well here is example of his care for the industry. I thought this was absolutely wonderful especially since I share a love for the industry. This is a lovely story for the preservation of Classic Hollywood and the films they created…

The Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences has acquired the ruby slippers worn by Judy Garland in 1939’s The Wizard of Oz – perhaps the most iconic pair of pumps to grace the silver screen – thanks largely in part to Leonardo DiCaprio.

In an announcement on Wednesday, the Academy named DiCaprio as the primary benefactor in its acquisition of the shoes, which will eventually be displayed at the planned Academy Museum in Los Angeles. According to a press release, DiCaprio led a group of “angel donors,” including Steven Spielberg and Terry Semel, whose gifts to the Academy Foundation enabled the purchase.

Four pairs of ruby slippers were used in the film, but this specific pair is believed to be the primary one used for close-up shots, and in the most pristine condition. Famously, it is believed to be the pair Judy Garland wore when Dorothy clicks her heels three times to return to Kansas.

“The ruby slippers occupy an extraordinary place in the hearts of movie audiences the world over,” said Bob Iger, president and CEO of the Walt Disney Co. and chair of the capital campaign for the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures. “This is a transformative acquisition for our collection.”

“Leo’s passionate leadership has helped us bring home this legendary piece of movie history,” added Academy CEO Dawn Hudson. “It’s a wonderful gift to the Academy museum project, and a perfect representation of the work we do year-round to preserve and share our film heritage.”

After production of the film ended in 1939, the ruby slippers were stored on MGM’s Culver City lot for the next three decades. Several pairs of slippers were discovered in 1970 by costumer Kent Warner while he was preparing for that year’s historic auction of MGM costumes, props and other production-related items. One pair of slippers was sold at the auction and was donated anonymously to the Smithsonian in 1979.

Warner kept the finest pair in his private collection for more than a decade before auctioning them in 1981. They were sold again in 1988 to another private collector, and have been displayed publicly only a handful of times in the years since.

The Academy Museum is set to move into Los Angeles’s history May Company building, although an opening date has not yet been set.

Warner Bros. has acquired the rights to Erik Larson‘s non-fiction book The Devil in the White City: Murder, Magic And Madness At The Fair That Changed America.

Leonardo DiCaprio will star as Dr. HH Holmes in this tale about a Chicago serial killer stalking prey at the World’s Fair. Graham Moore will write the screenplay.

There is no set start date for The Devil in the White City. Production is expected to start early next year.

The Devil in the White City comes to theaters in 2013.
