Leo DiCaprio and Benicio Del Toro are obsessed with Oasis and Radiohead reuniting

One of the biggest stories in music, but especially in Venom... Is that a... Don't ask any more questions? I got a tunnel! What? What's going on? I need a weapon, man! All you got is goddamn nunchucks! You know where I can get a gun? Hi, I'm Alex from NME and today we're joined by two of our greatest living actors It's Benicio Del Toro and Leonardo DiCaprio You've both had many scene partners over the years but Del Toro-DiCaprio is brand new What was one thing that you learned about each other from working on this film? I learned about Leo is... I've been friends... We've been friends for a long time We've met in the hallways and many times but I think it's his sense of humour aside from his talent and everything else that makes him who he is but I think what I was surprised was his sense of humour before... through the whole process of doing this film I was laughing from beginning to end Acting or was he just telling those knock-knock jokes? Both, both, both I think we all want to hear one of those but I won't read it all now What about you, Leo? What did you learn about Benicio? We started out around the same time I think we were on the cover of Vanity Fair together way back in the day and I've been just a huge admirer of his career his choices and to me it was no surprise to see him come onto set he was in the middle of doing another movie we waited around for him for a few months because we knew we had to have Benicio in this character but I just loved his choices the choices that he made for the character I mean, he came in... he defined who this character was and he really changed the course of the entire narrative structure of the movie It was no surprise to me that he would do that though, to be honest And I've got to ask partly because we're the enemy but also it's just mind-blowing but Johnny Greenwood's score Yeah Wow Yeah, it's incredible And I got to see dailies too with a lot of those songs already done so Paul would show us some of these driving sequences some of the huge helicopter stuff with that score and boy, that score really is like another character in this movie it adds to the tension you're kind of... the whole second half of the movie you're on the edge of your seat and that's in a large part to Johnny's score which he did an incredible job Well, there's the particular scene which is behind you right now with the cars going over the hills Yeah, that sequence I've never seen anything like that but the music in that bit it just makes it so tense Oh yeah, it's almost so obvious it's like a drum solo it's just so good it's almost like wait, have I seen this before? No, it's very original and very, very good I know because you've both been on projects that have involved Radiohead slash Johnny before I know Leo from Romeo and Juliet the Radiohead song was written for that film and Inherent Vice Johnny did the score for that as well Yes, he did and I got a chance to meet him Great What did you chat about? Are you big Radiohead fans? Yes, big time How could you not be a Radiohead fan? Kid A for me What they've contributed to music, man is incredible They've just announced their first shows in seven years Are you going to try and go? Yeah People are going to be flying all over the world for those, huh? Elbow our way in Who's this? They're just my friends Now is that a he or a she or a they? It's not that hard They, them Okay, I just want to be polite So I'm glad we're onto music because one of the biggest stories in music this year but also particularly for us at NME was the Oasis reunion and doing some research I saw last week, Leo that you managed to go to one of the shows Yeah How was that? It was incredible It was incredible to see them back together again and Paul McCartney was actually there and I think they sang a Beatles song and I remember I was in the section next to him and the whole sort of stadium looked back looked back at Paul and clapped for Paul too which was awesome It was a great tip of the hat so it was a special night Did either of you ever come across them in the 90s maybe when you were coming out? Yeah, I've never met them No, no But I like them, yes I didn't get a chance to see them but yeah What do you do when you go to because I've got a list of names from the guest list for that show because it was in Pasadena I think, wasn't it? The Rose Bowl It's like Paul McCartney Billie Eilish Salma Hayek just full of so many like star names What is it like when you go to one of those shows? Because I imagine quite a few of them are like that in LA So they sort of just funnel you into one room and you're like they're the who's who You usually have your own separate section and you don't really talk to anybody to be honest and you look over and you go oh, so-and-so's here But no, it was a great tour Everyone's so excited about it Really Much like Radiohead when that happens too I think everyone's going to do their best to be there for those moments Yeah Well, we always end on this question I know you're both into music It's If there was one album that you always go back to the only one that you could keep what would it be and why? Stevie Wonder, Inner Visions Tell me about your relationship Stevie Wonder's just great I say it over and over again For me, he's one of the greatest living artists on earth I'm obsessed with his talent I've always been a Stevie Wonder fan Have you managed to meet him? See him live? I have met him It was one of the most exciting moments I could remember in a long time And he actually played a song that I requested What was that? That was Heaven Is Ten Zillion Light Years Away which he hadn't played for decades and then he played it It was an incredible moment The concert you were at It was a concert in Australia Amazing How did you put that request in? I just asked those peeps I was like, yo This is one of my favourite songs Can you play it? And he did it That is a flex Yeah For me it would be Tattoo You It's like a family member that album The Rolling Stones The Rolling Stones, yeah I got it when I was like I don't know 13 I bought it and that's around the time that I left home and it was like some talisman or something and it's just like I've been a fan of the Stones since I was a kid I'm still a fan of the Stones so it would have to be Tattoo You I bought it It came out from the box I got it and I've been listening to the Stones ever since Both great choices Thanks so much for chatting to me Thank you I need you brother Sensei Sensei please Courage Bob Courage That's it Courage Yeah Yes Thank you Hey Thank you Sensei Thank you God damn it Viva la revolución
