Leonardo plans on being selective choosing projects and ‘slowing down’

Leonardo Di Caprio revealed that he plans on “slowing down” and being more selective of the projects he works on.

Caprio admitted that he's signing fewer projects now but he just couldn't refuse, Paul Thomas Anderson, director of his latest movie One Battle After Another.

According to foreign media outlet, he said, "I’m slowing down a bit... When these opportunities come up, I mean, I can’t say no...”

The Titanic hero continued, "I think anytime would’ve been the right time [to work with Anderson], to be honest. Ever since I met Paul early on and I saw Boogie Nights, I’ve been an obsessive fan of his work, watched all his movies.”

Heaping praise for Paul, he said, "His films ruminate in my mind and they're conversation pieces with my friends, they last... Awards can come and go, accolades, box office can come and go, but those pieces of art, that you still talk about and still think about and still question,” said Leonardo.

"Those are the films that we strive for as an actor. And Paul is the dude of our generation that does them,” he concluded in his conversation with PEOPLE magazine.

Meanwhile, in an interview with Variety, the Inception star stated he was thrilled to work with Paul, saying, "Anytime you get somebody that’s really trying to do a massive spectacle-odyssey, that is such a unique filmmaker like Paul, you have to jump at the opportunity.”

"To tell you the truth, I would’ve done any movie that he proposed, because he’s that unique and interesting of a filmmaker and that great. But I’m glad I got to do this one,” Leonardo DiCaprio further praised.
