The veteran actor told The Guardian newspaper:

De Niro was speaking on the advent of his forthcoming movie Killers of the Flower Moon, his 10th collaboration with director Martin Scorsese, and likened his character William Hale to that of the former US president:

And we’d tell [DiCaprio]: ‘You don’t need that dialogue.’”This comes after Scorsese recently revealed that DiCaprio asked for a major overhaul of the film’s script two years into the writing process.While the film ended up being told from the perspective of the Osage tribe, that wasn’t the original plan.
