AKIPRESS.COM - Leonardo DiCaprio will not be tackling the role of Steve Jobs, said HR. 

The actor, who had been in talks with Sony to play the late Apple Computer co-founder for director Danny Boyle, has bowed out to instead shoot The Revenant (movie).

But instead of making the untitled Jobs biopic right after, as had been hoped, DiCaprio has removed himself from the project altogether.

Sources say after DiCaprio finishes The Revenant, which began shooting this week, he plans to take a lengthy break from acting.
