American archer Brady Ellison is a three-time Olympian and, as of Saturday, a two-time silver medalist, taking home a second-place win in this year’s team event.
But the 27-year-old champion might be getting more attention for something totally unrelated to his archery skills, as spectators have noticed his striking resemblance to everyone’s favorite Oscar winner.
Social media was awash with people claiming Ellison was the pitting image of Hollywood actor Leonardo DiCaprio.
Leonardo DiCaprio will be playing Brady Ellison in "The Archer".

Team USA are currently top of the Olympics medal table in Rio, with Ellison's silver contributing to that.
