The two faces do look similar, but the noses in the painting look a lot sharper than the earlier self portrait nose.

Michaelangelo's "David" has a greek nose. Some folks believe that a greek nose is considered aesthetically perfect. It doesn't have to reflect any reality about a subject, it can just be used by an artist because it looks good.

So when you see a greek nose, it need not be a self-portrait of Leonardo, it may just be an artistic ideal.

Looks like there are two Leonardo De Caprio’s - their big mouths give them away.

Hiya, Joe!

Maybe one was Leonardo's stunt double.

Actually THREE Leonardos. One of the apostles looks like he has the earlobe of Leonardo DeCaprio..
