It has recently been revealed that DiCaprio will earn $15 million “only” for his participation in Once Upon a Time In Hollywood, while his fixed fee is $20 million. But, no need for mass funding. DiCaprio is expected to make a profit of $45 million if the film becomes a hit, as is expected.
Recently, DiCaprio has been at the center of public interest, much of it because of his new film and interviews with various promotion events. At the red carpet event in honor of the film’s release, DiCaprio admitted he was not thinking of quitting soon, in another interview he said he thought “euphoria” was an amazing series.
During another promotion of the film, DiCaprio confronted the question of anyone watching the Titanic ever – was there room for Jack on the floating door? “No response,” replied DiCaprio.
Brad Pitt (who starred beside him) stated that he must watch the scene again soon and tried to persuade DiCaprio to answer the question: “You could have crowded in there, would not you?”
“This is the biggest controversy in modern cinema,” continued DiCaprio, repeating his statement “no response.”
“Once Upon a Time In Hollywood” will be released this weekend. The film, which takes place in Los Angeles in the summer of 1969, follows the story of Rick Dalton (Dicaprio), a former television star and his regular multiplayer Cliff Booth (Pitt) who find it difficult to find themselves in the changing landscape of Hollywood. Another character after her is Jacob Tate (Margo Ruby), the late girlfriend of Roman Polanski, who was murdered that summer by the cult led by Charles Manson.
