People-Leonardo DiCaprio

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Leonardo DiCaprio says he's not ready to be a father.

The 33-year-old actor, who has an on-and-off relationship with model Bar Refaeli, says he has no plans at the moment to settle down and start a family.

"Ah, how do you answer something like that? So, um, I am being asked to look in the future I suppose quickly. No, I don't have any plan," says the famously private star, who has been promoting his upcoming film, "Body of Lies."

DiCaprio co-stars with Russell Crowe in the CIA thriller directed by Ridley Scott.

His screen credits also include "Romeo and Juliet" and "Titanic." He received Oscar nominations for his roles in "What's Eating Gilbert Grape," ''The Aviator" and "Blood Diamond."

DiCaprio can't seem to shake his heartthrob status.

"That's the only way I like to be referred to," he joked recently. "When I walk on set it's in the contract."

"Body of Lies" will be in theaters Oct. 10.
