After starring in Django Unchained, The Great Gatsby and The Wolf of Wall Street, he thinks it’s time to shun the celebrity life and do charity work instead. Leonardo told German newspaper, Bild: ‘I am a bit drained. I'm going to take a long, long break. I've done three films in two years and I'm just worn out.'
A hectic filming schedule has also meant Leonardo is away from his LA home and he’s more than ready to move back in. He said: ‘I love to have friends over, but I haven't really been home for a year and a half so I don't even remember the last time I did that.
'I've just done three movies back-to-back, so I'm looking forward to getting back to my house.'
