DiCaprio is off acting, some say he never has

Leonardo DiCaprio is going to take time out for a “long, long break” from acting.

The 38-year-old star has made three movies in two years and says the hectic schedule has left him worn out.

As well as the Oscar-nominated Quentin Tarantino movie Django Unchained, DiCaprio stars in the forthcoming screen adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby and The Wolf of Wall Street, directed by Martin Scorsese.

The Departed actor said: “I’m a little bit drained. I am now going to take a long, long break.”

But he won’t be filling his days with his favourite pastimes of yacht cruises and Victoria’s Secrets models.

He plans to focus on environmental causes during the break.

Leo added: “I would like to improve the world a bit.”
