THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA AND CURIOUS FACTS COLLECTION 
  
CREATED BY TRIVIA HUB 
  
Leonardo DiCaprio is an American actor and film producer known for his work in biographical and period films. His career began in the late 1980s, with early roles in television before his film debut in 1991. He received critical acclaim for his role in What’s Eating Gilbert Grape (1993) and achieved international stardom with Titanic (1997). DiCaprio sought roles in other genres to shed his romantic hero image, including Catch Me If You Can (2002) and Gangs of New York (2002). He founded Appian Way Productions in 2004. He is also an active environmentalist and was designated a United Nations Messenger of Peace in 2014. 
  
CURIOUS FACT SAMPLES: 
  
Leonardo DiCaprio's parents met in college and moved to Los Angeles after graduating. His mother is German, and his father is of Italian and German descent. 
  
As a child, DiCaprio wanted to be either a marine biologist or an actor, eventually choosing acting because he liked imitating people and seeing their reactions. He was also motivated to learn acting when another child actor earned $50,000 from a commercial. 
  
DiCaprio has said his first television appearance was on the children's series Romper Room, where he claims he was dismissed for being disruptive, though the show's host has denied this. At age 11, he almost quit acting to pursue breakdancing, having taken second place in a competition in his mother's native Germany. 
  
Early in his career, DiCaprio's agent suggested he change his name to Lenny Williams to appeal to American audiences, but he refused. He remained jobless for a year and a half, even after 100 auditions, and almost quit acting before his father encouraged him to persevere.
