DiCaprio goes solo

Leonardo DiCaprio, star of The Aviator, the film that goes into the Oscars armed with the most nominations, will present one of the coveted statuettes, organisers said. The 30-year-old is nominated for best actor for his role as eccentric American billionaire Howard Hughes in Martin Scorsese’s biopic. It will be DiCaprio’s first appearance as a presenter. He shot to stardom for his role in the 1997 epic Titanic.
