In an interview with NME published on September 26, the actor expressed his excitement about seeing Oasis back together. DiCaprio described the night as extraordinary, highlighting the presence of Paul McCartney who joined the audience.
“It was incredible to see them back together again. And Paul McCartney was actually there, and I think they sang a Beatles song.
