Here's a picture of him from earlier this summer. Karwai Tang / WireImage OK, so here's a picture of Leonardo at the Golden Globes back in 2010, when he was roughly 35 years old. Why am I showing you this, you may ask? Christopher Polk/NBC / NBCUniversal via Getty Images Well, Leo recently granted an extremely rare interview with Esquire in conversation with celebrated director Paul Thomas Anderson - who helmed the forthcoming film One Battle After Another, which Leo stars in. That's a very Leo-centric poster for it below. Warner Bros. / Everett Collection In the interview, PTA asks the following: "Here's a question Esquire wants me to ask. 'You turned fifty last year. Does it feel like a natural time for reflection?' Leo replied by seemingly clarifying the question as, "You turned emotionally thirty-five last year." Stephane Cardinale - Corbis / Corbis via Getty Images Now, as you're probably aware, Leo has established a pattern in the past of dating women under or around 25 years old - and seemingly discontinuing the relationship when they turn 26. (It also should be noted that his alleged current relationship with 27-year-old model Vittoria Ceretti breaks that pattern.) Kevin Mazur / Getty Images for Critics Choice Association So, of course, Leo talking about feeling younger as an older man is an easy layup for the internet's many wisecrackers. Here's a sampling of the reactions: @Judnikki / Via x.com @TerryFranconia / Via x.com @AirlearnApp / Via x.com @LiamFennessy_ / Via x.com @heyhalima / Via x.com @addyvision / Via x.com @esjesjesj / Via x.com @springssonata / Via x.com Spicy stuff!
