What Made Him Haute: When it comes to films, this talented actor sure knows how to pick them, or rather, they pick him. DiCaprio went from America’s heartthrob to America’s smartest and most versatile actor, starring in Shutter Island and Inception this year—two movies we still can’t stop talking about.

What Makes Him Haute: In addition to his current roles as the first director of the FBI, America’s first serial killer, and the great Gatsby, Leonardo is said to have added the role of an FBI informant helping to solve the murderer of President John F. Kennedy to his very busy schedule.

“Legacy of a Secrecy” is an adaptation of the book which examines FBI informant Jack Van Laningham relationship with the southern mafia leader Carlos Marcello, whom the book points out as a potential mastermind behind the 1963 murder (and who reportedly even confessed taking part in the murder.) The film is rumored to be released in 2013.
