Leonardo Dicaprio previously revealed that he has been thinking about working behind the camera but now admits that he has certain worries about making a directorial debut.

The actor said that he has always admired Clint Eastwood and his style, saying: “If I did direct, I would try to have the same no-bulls**t approach to it as he and his crew have. Seriously, there are no frills on his set. It’s a small, tight-knit crew.”

However, Dicaprio is wary of working behind the camera, thinking that his obsessive nature might be a problem. He said: “I’ve been talking about directing a lot, but I’m still not sure I’m going to do it. When you’re a director you have so many different elements you need to be in control of. I get very obsessive when I do movies and it encompasses my life. And I don’t know how I’d react to two hundred different people asking me questions. I might spiral off into some other dimension of obsessiveness. For now, playing the character and being responsible for myself is what I’m doing. But you never know. I might give it a try. Because it does seem fun.”
