It's not slam him or anything, I'm just curious. The guy is a fantastic actor, but it seems like he doesn't do anything BUT act with a few lunch, bathroom and nap breaks thrown in. Maybe it's just me. Whatever...Anyway, DiCaprio is in talks with Warner Bros. to be in Ridley Scott's adaptation of the novel "Body of Lies" by David Ignatius. DiCaprio will play a CIA agent, and ex-journalist, who is sent hunt down an Al Qaeda leader planning an attack on American soil. He sould be on board with the film this fall.
Now for those of you wondering what all Leo is doing right now, here's an extensive list:
Confirmed release years:
"Blink" (2007) - unknown character
"Revolutionary Road" (2008) - unknown character
"The Chancellor Manuscript" (2008) - Peter Chancellor
"The Rise of Theodore Roosevelt" (2008) - Theodore Roosevelt
Unconfirmed release years:
"Body of Lies" - Roger Ferris
"The Wolf of Wallstreet" - Jordan Belfort
"Conspiracy of Fools" - unknown character
"Untitled Departed Prequel" - Billy (unconfirmed)
Potentially, that's eight movies on DiCaprio's plate. He's a great actor as we've seen from his last two films especially, so DiCaprio fans will get their fill with all this. He'll have a lot of chances at the Academy Awards, that's for sure... Perhaps he's decided to not do some of these, but there's been no mention of that. In the meantime, let's expect to see Leo in a lot of different roles coming up real soon.

actually....if you look at Leo's filmography, he has done much less the number of films compared to actors of about his age. I mean compare him with Matt Damon who seems to never take a break and does one film after another. I think Leo's doing it right though, he takes his time choosing his roles and is very particular. A lot of the films on your list are not confirmed, like the departed prequel. His last film Blood Diamond ended filming around June of last year and he won't start his next film (Revolutionary Road until this summer) so that's a whole year between projects which is about the norm for him.
