This isn't the first time Leonardo DiCaprio was nominated for an Oscar. However, it seems like he's always this close to bagging one. Now that he's nominated yet again for his highly-acclaimed role in The Revenant, is it finally time for the actor?

E! News reported about how he feels after being given the Oscar nod. "It does feel great especially when you worked on something for this long a period of time," the actor said. "This was, I keep saying to people, this was almost like going on a grand voyage together with a crew. It was unlike any other filmmaking experience I've had and to have so many different departments recognized the way they were, especially my friend Tom Hardy, my make-up artist that I've worked with for - what is it? - almost 23 years now, to see all their efforts and work connecting with the Academy and our community, it does feel great."

"You know, it's not often that films like this even get made, but the fact that it's gotten recognized means we're going to get to do more like it, so that's encouraging," the actor added.

The Revenant is currently leading the Oscars with 12 nominations followed by Mad Max who received 10 nods.
