The troubles of Mel Gibson seems to be never ending; after his talent agency, William Morris Endeavor dropped the actor from his client list, Hollywood actor Leonardo Di Caprio has withdrawn from Gibson’s historical epic on Viking culture.

The legendary actor who has starred in timeless movies like, ‘Braveheart’, ‘The Passion of the Christ’ and ‘Hamlet’ is accused of domestic abuse. 

Gibson has been blamed by Oksana Grigorieva, mother of his nine-month daughter Lucia, of hitting her. When asked if Leonardo was doing the film, a source close to him said, "Not a chance.

Leo has earned the right to pick and choose who he works with and Mel Gibson is not one of them.” If Caprio had not backed out, the untitled movie would have been the first collaboration between the two stars.
