Clint Eastwood confirmed to Reuters that Leonardo DiCaprio will play J. Edgar Hoover in his biopic of the powerful FBI director. But the 80-year-old director shot down reports that Joaquin Phoenix would be cast as Hoover’s lieutenant — and reputed lover — Clyde Tolson. “No. I don’t know where that came from,” Eastwood said. “Didn’t [Phoenix] become a rapper?”

DiCaprio eyes Hoover biopic
ha ha ha ha ha!!!
Zing!
Hahaha, Oh Clint. How I love you. See Joaquin, Clint didnt think it was cool. And yes haters, Clint does decide what is cool.
Clint is unstoppable! He really is just like fine wine, just keeps on getting better with age.
Ahhhhhhh!! Clint you rock. That was awesome. Leo as Hoover. This should get interesting folks. Another movie I can’t wait to see now.
This may be my new favorite un-Clint-like quote. Right up there next to “I do like tater tots” from A Perfect World. hahaha classic
Ooo, DiCaprio as Hoover, that sounds very intriguing. I wonder who will be cast as Tolson though?
Clint and Leo working together…I’m already thinking Oscar nominations.
I’ll definitely see this movie.
LMAO Clint is awesome!
Clint is awesome. Leo starring as another larger-than-life personality in a big biopic, though, is less exciting. Just because Depp and DiCaprio are bankable movie stars does that mean they have to be the go-to actors for everything?
That was a funny comment Clint made, but, all the same, Phoenix would be good for that role, so I hope he is considered for it once he finishes his world rap tour.
