There is a strong possibility we are going to be seeing Leonardo DiCaprio portraying the legendary Hugh Hefner on the big screen. When most males think of Playboy Magazine and the Playmates that come along with it, you always have to pay credit to the man who created his empire around his lifestyle. And what a lifestyle it is. Ever since Playboy came out in 1953, the magazine has captured the interest of practically everyone on the planet. With sex saturating pop culture today, the brand has become popular among just as many women as men. A fair cry from the earlier years of the company.
Currently Leonardo DiCaprio is in talks to star as Hugh Hefner in an upcoming yet to be titled movie. Leo is a good friend of Hef’s and has attended several legendary parties at the Playboy Mansion. Although nothing is set in stone, or ink at this point, things look promising that DiCaprio will portray the notorious Playboy founder. I wonder what it is going to be rated? PG-13? Doubt it! |
