The Boogie Nights star detailed the conversation he had with DiCaprio after director Paul Thomas Anderson decided that the actor would be the perfect Dirk Diggler.
“At the time we were trying to get Boogie Nights put together, being in porn was thought of as taboo,” Reilly told Ted Danson on the latest episode of the Where Everybody Knows Your Name podcast.
