On the heels of the release of his incredibly successful film "Inception," actor Leonardo DiCaprio has decided to withdraw from a Mel Gibson-directed film as Gibson continues to battle a prolific domestic abuse scandal, according to a report from RadarOnline.com.

Sources reportedly told Radar that a source close to DiCaprio said "not a chance" when asked if he would still participate in Gibson's next project, which was said to be a film about Vikings.

Gibson has been a constant presence in headlines for the past few weeks as alleged recordings of the actor's racist, sexist and violent rants have leaked to the press. The Oscar-winning actor is also engaged in a bitter custody battle with his ex-girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva for their infant daughter Lucia.

According to the report from Radar, DiCaprio did not want to risk his reputation, which is at an all-time high following commercial success with "Inception" and "Shutter Island."
