He often goes a mile extra to ensure that he brings his characters to life with perfection. While he is receiving praise for his latest film, Killers of the Flower Moon, the actor did give his all and even wore b*tt pads for a scene that involved Robert de Niro spanking him.

Leo began his acting journey when he was just a kid but did not have a breakthrough till the 1996 film Romeo + Juliet. With her 1997 movie Titanic, which also starred Kate Winslet, the actor was shot to global fame for his portrayal of Jack. Since then, there is no looking back for the actor and he has been living his life on his own terms.

Talking to Insider, Prieto said, “I do remember doing them quite a few times and thinking, ‘Oh, that must hurt.’” He further praised Leonardo DiCaprio for his dedication to a perfect shot and said, “There was some padding on his b*tt. But you could tell De Niro was really hitting him. … Leo is game for so much. He’ll do anything.”

He even added that the padding scene halfway through the story was not in the “first script,” and added, “That was something that was added, and it’s shocking in the film.”

For the unversed, Killers of the Flower Moon is based on David Grann’s 2017 book of the same name. It revolves around the story of the indigenous people in Oklahoma who were murdered after oil was found under their land. An investigation later takes place to understand the crime scene.
