Olivia Hussey plays Juliet in Franco Zeffirelli's 1968 movie of Romeo and Juliet. Claire Danes played her in the 1996 Baz Luhrman movie. She has also been played on film by Norma Shearer, Susan Shentall, Ann Hasson, Rebecca Saire, Megan Porter Follows, Geraldine Somerville and about 50 more actresses and Ballet dancers according to the IMdb.

Plus she has been played on stage innumerable times in the 415 years or so since the play premiered. Some famous Juliets on stage have been Fanny Kemble (1829) and Peggy Ashcroft (who played opposite Laurence Olivier and John Gielgud on alternating nights) in 1935.

Leonardo DiCaprio starred in the TV version of which Shakespeare play?

Leonardo diCaprio did not star in a "TV version" of any Shakespeare play. He starred in Baz Luhrmann's 1996 film Romeo+Juliet, opposite Claire Danes, which was released in theatres long before it was ever seen on TV. Romeo and Juliet has been produced at least five times specifically for TV, so it doesn't make sense to talk about "the TV version" of this play.
