Leonardo DiCaprio, in a candid interview with Esquire, revealed his biggest film regret: turning down the lead role in Boogie Nights. He praised the film as a masterpiece and a profound movie of his generation, but acknowledged that Mark Wahlberg was the perfect fit for the part. Despite this missed opportunity, DiCaprio and director Paul Thomas Anderson collaborated on the successful action-comedy, One Battle After Another, which earned nine Golden Globe nominations.
