The studio also pointed out that DiCaprio, who will portray the role of real-life frontiersman Hugh Glass in film, was attacked by a bear while depicting the scene during an 1823 expedition of the American wilderness.

Earlier, there were rumours that the actor's character Glass was brutally attacked by a bear who reportedly then flips him over on his back and proceeds to molest him.

Helmed by Mexican director Alejandro Gonzalez, the forthcoming adventure-thriller film will also star actors Tom Hardy, Domhnall Gleeson and Will Poulter among others and is slated to hit US theaters on December 25, 2015.
