Reply to comment by nowhereman136 in Leonardo DiCaprio has only worked with 3 directors more than once: Baz Luhrmann (2x), Quentin Tarantino (2x), Martin Scorsese (6x). by jankyeyes

I don't think Spielberg does a lot of movies that Leo would act in. Not about quality, but the choices he makes. Leo seems to have really gotten into genre movies more and more.

Other than Titanic does he do much standard comedy/drama? I don't think so...?

As much as I enjoyed Paul Dano, I think DiCaprio could've played Mr Fabelman

War Horse, Munich, and Tintin could've been good for DiCaprio also. They might have been smaller roles than he's use to but he took the smaller role for Django

DiCaprio tends to do exciting dramas like Revenant, Hollywood, and Shutter Island, but he's branched out. Don't Look Up was a straightforward comedy. Revolutionary Road and J Edgar were simple period dramas with almost no action. J Edgar even feels like a Spielberg movie in the vain of Lincoln and War Horse.

Leo gets every script in Hollywood first, and then it goes to everyone else. One of few who get to pick which project they work on.
