After The Revenant in 2015, Leo stepped away from acting for a few years, only returning in 2019 with Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. He’d been pushing himself hard for years, so this break was all about relaxing and focusing on his environmental activism. He’s always been someone who chooses quality over quantity, and this hiatus let him come back refreshed. We all love this brilliant actor and want to see him on screen more often, but it was a well-deserved break for Leo after bagging his first Oscar as best actor.
