Leonardo DiCaprio to team up with Paul Thomas Anderson

Paul Thomas Anderson has made movies like The Master, There Will Be Blood and Magnolia in the past. Fans are hopeful that this new film with Anderson might help Leonardo DiCaprio win his first Oscar after The Revenant in 2015.

DiCaprio has worked with some great filmmakers in his life but not with Anderson. In the past, Paul Thomas Anderson has brought out amazing performances from actors like Daniel Day-Lewis (There Will Be Blood), Joaquin Phoenix (The Master), Philip Seymour Hoffman (The Master), and even in the crime drama Tom Cruise (Magnolia). The new movie will be set in the South California area with the actor playing a flawed character.
