While Leo is known for his serious roles in movies such as The Revenant, Inception and The Departed, he showed off his playful side as he spotted his pal down the street and decided to play a prank on him.

Taking out his mobile phone, the Oscar winner held it up to his face and ran towards the 32-year-old pretending to be a superfan desperate to get a selfie with the actor.

The sudden movements made Jonah look up from his own phone in shock, and it took a couple of seconds for the 21 Jump Street star to realise it was actually Leo approaching him.

Taking the 41-year-old's joke in good spirits, Jonah quickly got over his shock as he laughed and was pulled in by his pal for a big hug.

The pair were then joined by four other friends as they hung out for the afternoon.

Jonah has previously opened up about his friendship with Leo, recalling a time he played a bit of a prank of his own on the set of the Martin Scorsese film with a piece of raw fish.

He told Variety: "I was supposed to say 'yes' and then eat it. But then I said, 'No, buddy, it's all yours,' and then he had to eat it.

"So he had to match that take for the rest of the night and had to eat about 70 pieces of raw yellowtail and was throwing up into a trash can.

"Everyone was like 'Oh, Leo, are you OK?' and the only two people on the floor laughing were Scorsese and me."
