Chase Infiniti shaved Leonardo DiCaprio’s face herself
During her latest appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live on January 14, Chase Infiniti, who played Leonardo DiCaprio’s daughter in One Battle After Another, opened up about a time on set when she was tasked with shaving the legendary actor.
She revealed that the grooming gig took place before the shoot. “Around the time I was getting to my last callback and chemistry reads, one of the things that Paul had me do to kind of have me and Leo bond was [shave] his face… because Paul was trying to figure out what his facial hair was going to look like.”
Infiniti recalled, “And he was like, ‘Here, Chase, go in and shave his face’!” She admitted that she had never used an electric shaver before and had no idea what she was doing.
“I ended up making it crooked,” she laughed, “So somewhere there’s a video of me shaving his face!” Kimmel laughed along and added, “Really! That’s a weird thing to do, isn’t it? That’s a lot of responsibility. That face is like a national treasure.”
The 25-year-old added, “I was like shaking the entire time. I was like, ‘I’m so sorry. I hope I don’t do anything wrong.'” She also laughed and revealed that DiCaprio did not really have a say in this, and it was all Paul Thomas Anderson’s call.
One Battle After Another won four Golden Globe awards this year and is a favorite in the other major award shows going forward.
