James Cameron told Fox News Digital Leonardo DiCaprio almost passed on playing Jack Dawson in "Titanic" because he thought the role was too easy.
Leonardo DiCaprio sparked new rumors about his romantic life with a simple photo.
The actor was photographed sitting next to model Eden Polani at an album release party last week, but DiCaprio and the 19-year-old model are not dating, Fox News Digital has learned.
Even though they're not an item, the photo sparked a twitter frenzy, with users calling out DiCaprio for his pattern of dating younger women.
