Posted on Jan 15, 2022Here's A Brief Explainer Debunking A Viral Story About Leonardo DiCaprio Taking His Girlfriend Camila Morrone On The "Worst Date Of My Life"
Not to be confused with the very real story of him making Jonah Hill watch "The Mandalorian."

Leonardo DiCaprio is a huge Star Wars nerd — new information to me, but I feel that it checks out.

Amy Sussman / Getty Images (To our finite knowledge, at least.)Let me backtrack a little: Last night, a satire page on Twitter with the handle @LeCinephiles tweeted a fake breaking news story about the Don't Look Up star. It read, "BREAKING: Leonardo DiCaprio’s ex-girlfriend, Camila Morrone details the 'worst date of my life' with the actor."
Le Cinéphiles @LeCinephiles BREAKING: Leonardo DiCaprio’s ex-girlfriend, Camila Morrone details the “worst date of my life” with the actor. “He rented out a whole cinema, and made me watch every single ‘STAR WARS’ movie while he ran around with his lightsaber pretending to fight bad guys.” 10:21 PM - 14 Jan 2022 Reply Retweet Favorite Twitter: @LeCinephiles / Via Twitter: @LeCinephiles The tweet was accompanied by a fake quote: "He rented out a whole cinema, and made me watch every single Star Wars movie while he ran around with his lightsaber pretending to fight bad guys."First, the 47-year-old A-lister is still presumably dating 24-year-old actor and model Camila Morrone.

Lucasfilm / Twentieth Century Fox / Everett Collection For example, it once tweeted about a new James Corden variant called "Cordiant" that "has unique symptoms, including the necessity to be unfunny, and the need to appear in every single Hollywood production."Now, as far as celebs being absolute weirdos go, this is certainly not high on the list, and I can totally see why people would take it at face value. Also, objectively, picturing Leo running around a dark, empty theater making lightsaber noises is so hilarious, I desperately wish it were true.
Star Wars / Lucasfilm / Twentieth Century Fox And let's not forget, there's somewhat of a precedent: Jonah Hill recently revealed (in an actual interview with an actual magazine, namely W Mag) that his costar made him watch The Mandalorian while filming the Adam McKay satire.
Frazer Harrison / Getty Images "And it was like, Baby Yoda was so cute, but I just didn't give a fuck because I didn't know anything that it was about," Jonah said, adding that he previously had a rule about not watching fantasy series because he would often "lose focus."After the initial tweet from @LeCinephiles went viral, the account asked journalists to interview the star about the viral phenomenon.
Le Cinéphiles @LeCinephiles if someone out there is interviewing leo in the next month or so, can you please ask him about our tweet. we need this to be canonised irl 04:33 AM - 15 Jan 2022 Reply Retweet Favorite Twitter: @LeCinephiles / Via Twitter: @LeCinephiles By the looks of it on Twitter, both the real and fake Star Wars-themed stories seem to have elevated Leo's star status, as fans proclaimed their readiness for a marathon date.
