A heartthrob feud? Mark
Wahlberg revealed in the December
20th issue of The Hollywood Reporter that back in the day, there was some
seriously bad blood between him and Leonardo
DiCaprio. The feud was so heated, in fact, that Mark almost didn't get cast in
the 1995 film "The Basketball Diaries." Leo, the star of the flick,
didn’t want him in it.
The
42-year-old told the mag, "Leonardo was like, 'Over my dead f------ body.
Marky Mark's not going to be in this f------- movie.'" But the "Pain
and Gain" star admitted that he deserved the icy treatment from Leo.
"I didn't even realize it, [but] I was a bit of a d--- to him at a charity
basketball game," he admitted. "So he was like, 'this f------ a------
is not going to be in this movie.'"
But
all's well that ends well. Mark managed to wow Leo with his acting chops, and
he landed the role. "So I come in and I do the audition and I kind of look
at him and he kind of looks at me," he recalled. "And then we do a
scene, and they're like, 'Hmm, this f------ dude's pretty good, right?' The
next thing you know, boom, we're hanging out."
