Kate Winslet and Leo’s New York lunch date

Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet have been spotted enjoying lunch in New York.

The Titanic co-stars hit the Carlyle hotel for a bite to eat, the New York Post reports.

The film stars have been pals since they shot the blockbuster James Cameron movie 13 years ago.

In 2008 they teamed up again for the drama Revolutionary Road, directed by Winslet’s then husband, Sam Mendes.

Winslet has previously spoken about the deep connection they share, saying, “Leo and I are kindred spirits, we’re cut from the same cloth.”

“We’re like one of those old couples in When Harry Met Sally,” DiCaprio said at the time.

Exclusive! Matt Damon, Kate Winslet and Gwyneth Paltrow filming in Chicago!

It appears that some A-list celebrities have checked into Chicago without alerting the paparazzi. Very sneaky!

But nothing remains a secret in this city for too long.

“Matt Damon, Kate Winslet and Marion Cotillard just checked into the Peninsula. They are in town for a month shooting a film in Wilmette… is what I am being told,” said an ultimate insider to nightlife and dining writer Audarshia Townsend.

The movie titled Contagion is an action-thriller centered on the threat posed by a deadly disease and an international team of doctors contracted by the CDC to deal with the outbreak.

And if you check the Chicago Film Office website, it confirms that the film Contagion starring Matt Damon and Gwyneth Paltrow will begin filming today around the city. The filming is scheduled to continue throughout October and finish on December 17th.

Other veteran actors in the all-star cast include Jude Law and Laurence Fishburne.

The Triangle has now officially been put on RED ALERT for celebrity spotting!

Candids: Kate picking up Mia from school yesterday

Kate Winslet was spotted picking up daughter Mia, 10, from her school in New York City on Monday (October 18).

Mia’s adorable and starting to look more and more like her mom. Kate is looking pretty happy — and I think I know why.

Things are said to be getting serious between Kate and boyfriend Louis Dowler. The actress and her British model beau have been inseparable lately, and sources say Louis is considering relocating to Chicago to be closer to Kate, who is temporarily living there while she works on her next film.

Added 13 HQ pics to the gallery:

John C. Reilly to join Foster, Winslet & Waltz in “God of Carnage”

John C. Reilly will play Michael, the role originated by James Gandolfini on Broadway, in Roman Polanski’s big screen adaptation of the stage hit God of Carnage, according to Deadline.com. The gossip website had previously mentioned Matt Dillon for the part in the film, which will also star Academy Award winners Jodie Foster as Veronica, Kate Winslet as Annette and Christoph Waltz as Alan.

Written by Yazmina Reza, God of Carnage tells the story of two sets of parents who decide to have a cordial meeting after their sons are involved in a schoolyard brawl. The get-together hilariously goes south as each pair attacks the other’s parenting style and eventually reveals their personal qualms with their own spouses.

Reilly was nominated for a Tony Award for his work in True West and received Oscar and Golden Globe nominations for playing Amos Hart in the film version of Chicago. His other Broadway credits include A Streetcar Named Desire and The Grapes of Wrath. His other film credits include Boogie Nights, Never Been Kissed, Magnolia, Gangs of New York, The Hours, The Aviator, Talladega Nights, Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story, Step Brothers and Cirque du Freak: The Vampire’s Assistant.

Filming is set to start in February in France.
