小李子想演普京 稱角色“很有意思”

After many stellar performances in his career, Leonardo DiCaprio has expressed his desire to play the role of Vladimir Putin.
出演過許多精彩角色的萊昂納多·迪卡普里奧，這次想演普京。

In a recent interview with the German newspaper Welt, the 6-time-Oscar nominated actor revealed that he could imagine himself playing the role of the Russian President.
近日在接受德國報刊《Welt》采訪時，這位六獲奧斯卡提名的演員坦言考慮過扮演俄羅斯總統(tǒng)。

“Putin would be very, very, very interesting. I would like to play him,” he said.
“演普京肯定會非常非常有意思，我挺想試一試。”他說。

The Golden Globe winner also shared his meeting with Putin in 2010 when he attended the International Forum on Tiger in St Petersburg.
這位金球獎得主還提到了自己2010年與普京見面時的情景。當時他正在圣彼得堡參加“保護老虎國際論壇”的活動。

“My fund has several projects aimed at financial support for protecting these wild cats [Siberia tigers]. Putin and I spoke only about these magnificent animals, not about politics,” said Leo.
萊昂納多稱：“我名下的基金會有幾個項目正在為保護這些野生虎類（西伯利亞虎）提供資金支持。當時普京只和我談了關(guān)于老虎保護的事，并沒有涉及政治。”

It seems that the Russian history surely fascinates The Revenant actor as he said, “I think there should be more films about Russian history because it has many stories worthy of Shakespeare. That is fascinating for an actor.”
俄羅斯歷史似乎也很吸引這位《荒野獵人》的主演，他說道：“俄羅斯歷史上很多故事都不比莎士比亞筆下的作品遜色，我覺得非常值得拍成電影。這對演員來說太有吸引力了。”

But Leo hasn’t restricted his choice to Russia’s present leader only. He revealed that he wouldn’t mind playing the role of leader of Vladimir Lenin, Russia’s Communist revolution, or peasant-turned-emperor-shaman Grigori Rasputin.
然而萊昂納多想演的可不止于俄羅斯現(xiàn)任領(lǐng)導人。他還表示不介意出演俄社會主義革命領(lǐng)導人列寧，以及格里高利·拉斯普京。后者是一位出身貧寒卻最終成為沙皇御用巫師的傳奇人物。

“Lenin also would be an interesting role. I would like also to star as Rasputin,” said the Hollywood star.
“演列寧也會很有趣。我還想嘗試一下拉斯普京，”這位好萊塢明星說道。

In another interesting revelation, Leo shared that he likes to refer himself as “half Russian” because his grandmother was from Russia.
他還透露了一個有趣的事實：他喜歡稱自己為“半個俄羅斯人”，因為他的祖母來自俄羅斯。
