Jack Nicholson pulled a real gun on co-star Leonardo DiCaprio as they made a movie. The pair were filming a scene for 2006 crime thriller The Departed. The veteran actor suddenly whipped out a pistol – to everyone’s surprise. And director Martin Scorsese says he still gets a fright when he thinks about it, according to a new book. He said: “The first thing Jack did was sniff the glass and say, ‘I smell a rat.’ “And then he pulled a gun on him. He didn’t tell me he had a gun. It was great. “We took a lot out, but Leo’s reaction is real-time. “I still get chills.” Scorsese, 68, told author Richard Schickel for new book, Conversations With Scorsese: “It’s so real to me.” DiCaprio played undercover state trooper Billy Costigan in the flick, who is sent to penetrate the Boston mafia, headed up by Nicholson’s character, Frank Costello.
