Hollywood actor Leonardo DiCaprio has decided to take a "long break" from his acting career spanning over two decades.

The 39-year-old was part of adventure movie "Django Unchained" (2012). He then featured in "The Great Gatsby" (2013) and now he will be seen playing the lead role in "The Wolf of Wall Street".

DiCaprio said he would take a hiatus from acting as soon as promotions of the Martin Scorsese's directorial are over.

"I have done three films in two years. I am most certainly drained now. I will now take a long break before I come back," DiCaprio said in a statement.

`The Wolf of Wall Street`, distributed by MVP Entertainment and PVR Pictures, will hit the screens Dec 25.
