Leonardo DiCaprio wants to play Hugh Hefner in a movie about the Playboy icon's life. The 'Blood Diamond' star has reportedly spoken to the 81-year-old adult magazine editor about making a biopic based on his extraordinary life.

A source said: "Leo and Hugh have been friends for a long time and Leo has always been interested in Hugh's life story. Leo thinks it would make a great movie and Hugh would love Leo to do it - on condition Hugh is alive to see it."

DiCaprio, 32, is a frequent visitor to Hefner's famous Los Angeles Playboy Mansion.

Earlier this year, Hefner revealed that DiCaprio likes to attend his renowned bunny girl parties in disguise.

Hefner said: "In the 70s Warren Beatty was having a very good time here. He and Jack Nicholson were regulars. More recently Leonardo DiCaprio is a regular. He comes to the Halloween parties with his buddies but in disguise."

"Last time they came as monkeys. And there were about six of them and you couldn't tell who was who."
