Kate Winslet gives her thoughts on Leonardo DiCaprio’s performance in One Battle After Another
“People are discovering that Leo is funny…” The English actress smiles at the audience’s reaction to the PTA film.
Kate Winslet has long known a side of Leonardo DiCaprio that the public is only now discovering thanks to Paul Thomas Anderson.
Interviewed Wednesday by Access Hollywood, the actress confided:
“CWhat I love most about the buzz around One Battle After Another is that people are like, ‘Oh my god, Leo is so funny.’ And I’m like: ‘Ba…Yes!’
His former lover Titanic explains that Leonardo DiCaprio “is – and always has been – one of the funniest people I’ve met in my life. I’m delighted that he can finally fully savor this side of himself in this performance, which for me is one of his best.”
The actor has already been nominated for the Golden Globes and the SAG Awards, and is also a favorite for an Oscar nomination for best actor in 2026.
In One Battle after anotherdirected by Paul Thomas Anderson, Leo plays Bob Ferguson, a zealous revolutionary turned breathless paranoid. The film gives the actor some of his funniest lines since Once Upon a Time in Hollywood or even The Wolf of Wall Street.
Winslet and DiCaprio have only made two films together (Titanic And THE Rebel Weddings), but remained very close, regularly supporting their respective projects. Last year, the actor — usually very discreet — even made a rare public appearance to accompany Winslet to the premiere of Lee.
