Leonardo DiCaprio is a doggone hero.
In a never-before-told story, the Oscar-winning actor revealed that he dove into a frozen lake to rescue his two Huskies — Jack and Jill — while filming his newest movie, "Don't Look Up."
"Basically, they both fell in a frozen lake," he said. "I didn't understand what you do in a frozen lake."
While explaining what happened during a sit-down with Entertainment Weekly's "Around the Table," Leo's co-star Jennifer Lawrence jumped in to help tell the tale.
"One of the dogs fell in, and he jumped into the frozen lake to save the dog," she said. "As soon as he pushed the one dog out of the pond, the other one jumped in."
Nodding along, Leo added, "Well, the other one started licking the one that was drowning, and then we all were in the frozen lake together." The dogs, which the film's director, Adam McKay, described as "absolute tornadoes," didn't understand the concept of a frozen lake because they live in California, Leo noted.
J-Law then interrupted with a spoiler alert.
"I'm sure you guys are all wondering, I was too, he immediately got naked in the car," she said.
While J-Law and Leo's banter is fun, she recently spoke of how miserable she was filming one particular scene opposite him and Timothée Chalamet.
"It was the most annoying day in my life. [Leo and Timothée] drove me crazy that day," she told Stephen Colbert. "I don't know what it was. Timothée was just excited to be out of the house [after the pandemic lockdown]. I think it was, like, his first scene. And Leo had picked the song that was playing in the car and was just, like, 'You know, this song was about, you know, blah, blah, blah.' "
The Oscar-winning actress added, "I just remember being in absolute misery that day. It was hell."
