Leonardo DiCaprio | Jack Nicholson


One thing many people had asked before 2016 was, “Why has Leonardo DiCaprio not won an Oscars yet?” That was a legitimate question because, with many of his films, including The Titanic receiving critical acclaim, it is a surprise why none of his nominations afforded him a win. However, that changed when he tackled a bear in The Revenant, eventually winning him the Best Actor Award. We think it was well deserved.

As a testament to his superb acting skills, Leonardo DiCaprio could mimic Jack Nicholson very well. A Japanese interviewer once asked him to do an impression, and he did a Nicholson. The audience probably expected him to say “Here’s Johnny” and wished they have a home security system in place—a reference to the movie Shining, Nicholson’s intense movie. However, what DiCaprio did was mimic Nicholson’s facial expression. Producers might now be thinking of casting him just in case there is a remake of Shining.
