But it turns out no such scene exists in the film, several sources who have seen "The Revenant" tell Business Insider.
Film critic Mark Dujsik also took to Twitter to say the scene isn't there:
Things that didn't happen in/at THE REVENANT: 1.) DiCaprio raped by a bear; 2.) women fainting in the aisles.

And other film journalists have similarly said that Drudge's report is false, including Brian Abrams of Death and Taxes.
Over at Vulture, Kyle Buchanan says that while DiCaprio's character is viciously mauled by a bear, there is no raping involved.
Business Insider has asked the distributor, Fox, for comment.
