Making the Hughes Moves
Leo DiCaprio has already been King of the World, but Wednesday night he was the King of Hollywood Boulevard at the premiere of his new movie “The Aviator,” as he brought the much-anticipated bio-pic about Howard Hughes in for a spectacular landing.

The screen heartthrob told “Extra’s” Jerry Penacoli that “The Aviator” is a personal labor of love. "I was compelled to play this man in all his eccentricities and complications,” Leo said, explaining his fascination with Hughes. “It's been a passion of mine for ten years now."
