It takes some man to pull that look off, but somehow, DiCaprio has done it.

The 43-year-old simply captioned the photo: First look. #OnceUponATimeInHollywood, and allowed fans to freak out in the comments.

Leo plays actor Rick Dalton, a star of a small-screen Western whose transition to the big screen didnt quite work out. Dalton is a neighbour of the actress Sharon Tate, and is contemplating moving to Italy to appear in low-budget Westerns when the movie finds him.
