Gordon-Levitt: 'DiCaprio is a consummate actor'

Joseph Gordon-Levitt has described his Inception co-star Leonardo DiCaprio as a "consummate actor".

The actor told DS at the sci-fi thriller's world premiere that he credits DiCaprio's thorough approach to acting as to why he is one of Hollywood's biggest stars.

He said: "He's a consummate actor, there's a reason he is who he is - he's extremely good at what he does and he is extremely professional and I love that he prioritises the art and the craft of it. As big a star as he is, he's an actor first and foremost."

Discussing the physical strains of filming Inception action scenes in rotating corridors, Gordon-Levitt explained: "(500) Days Of Summer, that dance sequence gave these scenes a run for their money in the fun factor, but I would say overall Inception was the hardest and most fun I've ever had on a set physically."
