WATCH: Leonardo DiCaprio finally gets hands on best actor Oscar
He beat the likes of British star Eddie Redmayne, Bryan Cranston, Matt Damon, and Michael Fassbender to take home the award for his role in The Revenant at the 88th Academy Awards.
The actor was first nominated for an Oscar 23 years ago in a supporting role, and has since been nominated four more times for acting, including this year, but had never won until now.
