Hollywood superstar Leonardo DiCaprio, who was in talks to star as Apple's co-founder Steve Jobs in his biopic, has reportedly opted out of the film.

The 39-year-old actor was earlier reported to make the much-awaited project but has now completely disassociated from the untitled movie, said The Hollywood Reporter.

DiCaprio, after finishing 'The Revenant' has apparently planned to take a lengthy break from acting.

Scott Rudin is producing alongside Film 360's Guymon Casady and Mark Gordon. The Jobs film would have marked a reteaming of DiCaprio and Danny Boyle, who previously teamed on 2000's 'The Beach'.
