With the Oscars coming up, the Wolf of Wall Street film is receiving some much-deserved attention. Late night jokster and host Jimmy Fallon pokes some fun at the movie with this [real wolf head parody](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/meal-diamond).

For those who haven't seen the Wolf of Wall Street -- *spoiler alert:* there aren't any actual wolves. The name is based off of a line in the movie, but Jimmy Fallon (being Jimmy Fallon) decided that the movie needed more of a canine presence. He took [three different scenes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-tiger) and put Wolves right on top of the actor's heads.

As ridiculous as it sounds, it actually looked pretty cool. Maybe Leo will take a look at it and base his next role on being the Wolf Man.
