London
(ANI):
Hollywood
star
Leonardo
Dicaprio
is
currently
in
talks
to
play
Russian
revolutionary
Vladimir
Lenin
in
a
new
movie,
according
to
reports.
The
Titanic
star
has
been
chosen
for
the
role
in
Lenin's
Brain
because
the
film's
producers
think
that
the
Communist
leader
looked
like
him
when
he
was
young.
Russian
moviemaker
Alexander
Der
Borodyansky
will
direct
the
film.
Borodyansky
said
that
he
wanted
Dicaprio
to
be
in
his
"grotesque
comedy" because
of
the
striking
resemblance.
"He
would
not
need
a
mask
to
play
that
role,"
British
tabloid
The
Sun
quoted
him
as
saying.
