Leonardo DiCaprio hasn't mentioned it in his interviews, but costar Djimon Hounsou is telling everyone that Leo saved his life during the filming of "Blood Diamond" in Mozambique when Djimon was threatened by a man with a gun.
"We went to eat somewhere and apparently somebody was threatening to kill me there. Leo said, 'Well, you're gonna have to go through me,'" the Gladiator star says.
"He stood in the way of somebody who was trying to shoot me."
The gunman backed down and fled the scene.
Leo has refused to even discuss the matter during promotional interviews for the new film, but the Titanic star does talk about his great friendship with Djimon: "We became like brothers on this movie... We were together for six months."
