Leo Almost Was in Boogie Nights
Description
John C. Reilly spills the tea on his wild attempt to convince Leonardo DiCaprio to ditch Titanic for the gritty, taboo-laden Boogie Nights. Back when Leo was just 17, Reilly—fresh off their Gilbert Grape success—believed Leo was perfect for Anderson’s film, even offering to personally pitch him. But Titanic’s blockbuster glory pulled Leo in the other direction, a move Leo later admitted was one of his biggest regrets. Reilly wonders if the fame was too much for a young Leo, but hey, Leo eventually got his Anderson moment in There Will Be Blood.
