Leonardo DiCaprio Navigates NYC

Leonardo DiCaprio checks out his phone as he walks around on a rainy day in New York City on Thursday (May 28).

The 34-year-old actor has been rumored to play Frank Sinatra in a big screen blockbuster about the crooner, if he can learn to sing. He has hired a vocal coach to win him the part in Martin Scorsese‘s proposed movie, The Sun reported.

“Leo has hired a top vocal coach to get him sounding like Sinatra. He is a massive fan of the singer and has always wanted to play him. He would be sick to miss out on the leading role because his singing wasn’t up to scratch,” a source said. “He is now in intensive vocal coaching lessons to replicate Sinatra‘s distinctive style.”
