Leo's Cursed Face

Leonardodicaprio If Leonardo DiCaprio is cursed with his face -- a face that launched Titanic into the box office stratosphere, a face that adorns posters and lockers all over the country, a face that looks equally appealing angry or grumpy or enthralled -- what is an actor to do?

Leo has been nominated for three Oscars (the first at just 19 years old), won a Golden Globe (The Aviator),  rates 67 on Forbes Top 100 celebrities list, and dated not one but two international supermodels. Too bad he's cursed with that face huh?! But it points to a never-ending issue for actors: the "look."

Do you have a certain look that plagues you? Have you ever tried to fight your look? Do you mind being type-cast because of your look, or is it okay just as long as you're cast? Do you try to reinvent your look every so often or are you willing to play into whatever your look is? Does your look control you or do you control your look?
