Leonardo DiCaprio - Body of Lies

Anyone who saw this Hollywood, California, native's first major starring role opposite Robert DeNiro and Ellen Barkin in This Boy's Life knew a star was born. DiCaprio sizzled on the screen, dominating every scene he appeared in with his acting elders.

So powerful was he in the role that the New York Film Critics and the National Society of Film Critics named him runner-up for Best Supporting Actor. His outstanding performance in his next film, What's Eating Gilbert Grape?, garnered DiCaprio his first Academy Award and Golden Globe nominations.
