Speaking of Killers of the Flower Moon, according to Unilad, Martin Scorsese playfully poked fun at Leonardo DiCaprio’s dialogue improvisations. Scorsese and Robert De Niro personally love improvisation, but it looks like DiCaprio’s improv while filming their new movie went a little too far. When asked about Dicaprio’s intensity for improvisation, Scorsese said, “Oh, [it was] endless, endless, endless!” He further shared, “Then Bob [Robert De Niro] didn’t want to talk. Every now and then, Bob and I would look at each other and roll our eyes a little bit. And we’d tell him, ‘You don’t need that dialogue.’”
