  • A Few Inception Details Sneak Out

    InceptionThe mystery surrounding Christopher Nolan's upcoming thriller Inception has been extremely hard to penetrate. Along with the earlier trailer revelation that it contains airborne hallway battles, there's the photographic "reveal" this weekend that the movie will feature a sharply dressed Leonardo DiCaprio sitting dangerously on a window sill.

    In addition, Nolan favorite Michael Caine has offered up a small tidbit about his role: "I play a professor who's teaching a guy science," Caine told Empire. "It's Leonardo DiCaprio. He's going off to do a science project and he speaks to me before he goes."

    Caine couldn't reveal more because he was only handed his one scene, but another Nolan regular, Cillian Murphy, has seen the entire script and still wouldn't reveal much about the movie to MTV.

    This is my third film with Chris. He showed me the whole script. It's very very complex and amazing. I'm hugely excited for next year when it comes out. It's conceptual. It doesn't fit into any genre. There are elements of different types of things in it but it is all from Chris' imagination. I've never read anything close to it before.

    There is one thing Nolan can't keep secret: Inception opens July 16, 2010.

  • Second Trailer for Martin Scorsese's Shutter Island

    Shutter IslandOriginally scheduled to have opened this past weekend, Martin Scorsese's gothic thriller Shutter Island has been delayed until February 19, 2010. Instead, the studio is offering us another trailer with new glimpses of the mysteries and horrors lurking inside this Alcatraz-like asylum for the criminally insane.

    Leonardo DiCaprio and Mark Ruffalo play 1950's federal marshals sent to investigate the disappearance of an inmate who, the chief physician (Ben Kingsley) informs them, appears to have "evaporated, right through the walls." Once they arrive, they find themselves treated almost like patients themselves and nothing is as it seems. The nightmarish, apparently drug-induced, visions don't appear to be helping their investigation much either. Check it out below.

  • Leonardo DiCaprio Joins The Deep Blue Goodbye

    Leonard DiCaprioHere's some shocking news: Leonardo DiCaprio is setting up a possible franchise for himself at Fox that has zero input from Martin Scorsese ... at least so far.

    Variety reports that DiCaprio is set to star in an adaptation of The Deep Blue Goodbye, where he will portray Floridian "salvage consultant" Travis McGee in the first of what was to become a 21-book series by the late mystery novelist John D. MacDonald. In the book, DiCaprio's character, who recovers lost or stolen items or money for clients, tracks down a psychotic murderer in possession of a soldier's treasure lost somewhere in the Florida Keys. No details were given on how Dana Steven has altered the story in her screenplay.

    No director is currently attached to The Deep Blue Goodbye, but with DiCaprio also serving as producer, it's expected that DiCaprio will find a suitable candidate. Considering his almost constant working relationship with Scorsese, could he be along for the ride? Their first joint effort on a thriller, Shutter Island, has been pushed back for a February 19, 2010, release, usually not a good sign. However, bringing on Scorsese might help DiCaprio seal himself into a franchise, though with his current schedule loaded with movies like Brave New World, The Rise of Theodore Roosevelt (with Scorsese), and about 24 others, who knows when DiCaprio will find the time to complete The Deep Blue Goodbye, much less 21 more crime movies.

  • Leonardo DiCaprio Journeys to a Brave New World

    Director Ridley Scott is highly regarded by fans of science fiction as a visionary thanks to his 1982 movie Blade Runner, an adaptation of the book Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? by Phillip K. Dick. So Universal Pictures has high hopes that if anyone can faithfully translate the classic dystopian novel Brave New World into celluloid, it's Scott. Of course, having an A-list actor like Leonardo DiCaprio on board to star in the movie can't hurt.

    Writer Aldous Huxley's most famous work, Brave New World takes place in the bleak future of the 26th century, where society is rigidly stratified, families are outlawed, and human reproduction occurs only in factories. Rumors have circulated about Scott's involvement in a possible movie adaptation of the novel for a while now, but this is the first time that the noted director has been officially linked to the project. Scott and DiCaprio have set up shop at Universal and will co-produce via their respective production companies, Scott Free and Appian Way. The two have worked together as director and actor before, on Body of Lies, and are expected to reprise that dynamic on this movie, with DiCaprio likely playing Bernard, the central character in Huxley's novel.

    Leonardo DiCaprio

    It's unclear at what phase of development Brave New World is in, but it's unlikely that it will get off of the ground anytime soon because of the plethora of projects Scott and DiCaprio are currently involved in. Scott is currently shooting Robin Hood and has as many as ten other features in various stages of development, while DiCaprio is currently filming Christopher Nolan's Inception and is attached to star in at least a dozen other movies, including at least two genre films: Aquaman, based on the DC Comics superhero, and Akira, a live-action adaptation of Katsuhiro Ôtomo's award-winning anime.

  • Titanic to Set Sail in 3D?

    Titanic posterEmpire caught up with Titanic mastermind James Cameron at Comic-Con and the talk inevitably turned to a 3D version of his epic disaster movie. When asked about the possibility, Cameron said:

    "We're going to do Titanic in 3-D! We've already done a 90 second clip of it and it's phenomenal and gorgeous, so that's going to be the project for next year. It's a conversion of it, not native photography; we can't go back."

    He also expressed interest in giving Terminator 2 the 3D treatment, saying it "could be fun because I think that's a film that stands the test of time for me." Is a bigger, better Titanic something you'd like to see? Or is Leonardo DiCaprio in 3D too much for anyone to sit through? We're sure Kate Winslet wouldn't get too many complaints...

  • Leonardo DiCaprio Hires Writer to Pen Twilight Zone Movie

    Leonard DiCaprioVariety is reporting that Leonardo DiCaprio and his production company Appian Way have hired Rand Ravich to pen a new Twilight Zone movie. Ravich wrote the screenplay for The Astronaut's Wife and also created the NBC TV series Life.

    This would be the second cinematic adaptation of Rod Serling's classic TV series, which ran from 1959 to 1964 and included 156 episodes. The first movie came in 1983, with segments directed by Steven Spielberg, Joe Dante (Gremlins, Small Soldiers), and John Landis (An American Werewolf in London, Michael Jackson's Thriller video).

    There's no official word yet on if DiCaprio will star in the film, or if the movie will draw material from the TV series.

  • Christopher Nolan May Not Return for Batman 3

    The Dark KnightChristian Bale has already bemoaned that he is contractually obligated to return for Batman 3 whether Christopher Nolan is involved or not. While Nolan and writer David Goyer have been discussing possible story ideas for some time, Bale may be without the director that revitalized the Batman franchise with Batman Begins and The Dark Knight.

    According to a source speaking with Batman-on-Film, it took a lot of convincing to bring Nolan back for The Dark Knight, but after Heath Ledger's tragic death, it may be impossible to convince the director to come back again. The source confirmed that Nolan, Goyer, and Jonathan Nolan have discussed story ideas, but had originally intended for the Joker to return in Batman 3, creating a problem they have not been able to solve. So far, no decisions have been made regarding the story for Batman 3, pushing the movie's release until 2012 or, possibly, 2013.

    Nolan is currently working on Inception, his sci-fi thriller starring Leonardo DiCaprio. Obviously, fans would love to have Nolan return for the third Batman, but until Nolan's involvement is official, they will have to find solace in a report from February that said Nolan's studio deal for Inception included an agreement to make Batman 3. Keep your fingers crossed.

  • DiCaprio Tackles Online Casinos After Shutter Island

    Leonardo DiCaprioFresh off of filming Shutter Island with his The Departed director, Martin Scorsese, Leonardo DiCaprio is gearing up to star in an as-yet-untitled film about online casinos, according to Variety. The project originated with writers Brian Koppelman and David Levien and is being produced by DiCaprio's Appian Way production company.

    Shutter Island is currently in post-production and has been described as a Hitchcock-esque period thriller. The plot revolves around a U.S. Marshal's (DiCaprio) search for a missing mental patient and his subsequent discovery of the sinister happenings at Boston's Shutter Island Ashecliffe Hospital. The film also stars Mark Ruffalo, Ben Kingsley, and Max von Sydow.

  • Scorsese to Tackle Frank Sinatra

    Universal and Mandalay will bring the first feature-length biopic of Frank Sinatra to the big screen, with the legendary Martin Scorsese directing. No actors are yet attached to the untitled project, but Leonardo DiCaprio should be considered a prime candidate, since he has starred in Scorsese's last four movies.

    "Ol' Blue Eyes" received the small-screen treatment in 1992 with the TV miniseries Sinatra, which starred Philip Casnoff and won two Golden Globes. However, bringing a big-screen movie to fruition proved a daunting task. Executive producers Peter Guber and Cathy Schulman apparently worked for several years to acquire all the necessary rights to Sinatra's music and life story, Schulman told Variety:

    The responsibility we are taking on to tell his story ... that would cause anyone to be very careful about who they grant these rights to.... Everyone knows that Marty Scorsese is a final-cut director. So there had to be a lot of trust that he would tell this story in a way that didn't destroy [Sinatra's] memory.

    Speaking about the movie itself, Schulman added:

    It's not a cradle-to-the-grave traditional portrait of the consecutive events in a man's life. Instead, it's more of a collage, and in many ways, it will feel like an album itself. It's a collection of various moments and impressions in his life, and together, we hope they'll tell the full story and present full themes.

    The movie's screenwriter, Phil Alden Robinson, wrote and directed Field of Dreams. He's also executive producing with Sinatra's dauger, Tina Sinatra, and Gary LeMel, former president of worldwide music distribution at Warner Bros. Pictures.

  • Leo to Join Nolan's Inception

    Lenoardo DiCaprio Joins InceptionDirector Christopher Nolan's sci-fi thriller Inception, otherwise known as the movie that's keeping a sequel to The Dark Knight on hold, has found the star power it needs to compete on its tough opening day of July 16, 2010, the same opening day as possible superhero blockbuster Thor. Variety reports that Leonardo DiCaprio will join Nolan for the first time to star in the thriller about the "architecture of the mind."

    If going up against Thor wasn't pressure enough, consider that Thor's director Kenneth Brannagh used to be married to Inception producer and Nolan's current wife, Emma Thompson. You sure you don't want to just make another Batman, Nolan?

  • Advice for Directors Married to Movie Stars

    Kate WinsletKate Winslet tells People.com she had a "total meltdown" while her husband Sam Mendes was directing her in a sex scene with Leo DiCaprio for the upcoming Revolutionary Road. Apparently Mendes was giving her too many detailed instructions about where her hands should be and things like that. Admittedly, this is a small demographic, but just in case you happen to be a director married to a movie star, you can learn from Mendes' mistakes. Some rules to follow:

    1) Make sure you give your wife's co-star some instructions too, so she doesn't feel like she's the only one doing things wrong.

    2) Don't be afraid to let her improvise a little; a little extra film footage is much cheaper than a divorce.

    3) Never, ever, ever tell her her posterior looks fat out of those jeans.

  • Marvel Eyeing Leonardo DiCaprio for Captain America

    Captain America?A decade ago, a headline like the one above would have elicited a hearty laugh. But with more "serious actor" types like Christian Bale, Edward Norton and Robert Downey Jr. gravitating toward big-budget comic book flicks, the prospect of Oscar nominee Leonardo DiCaprio donning the red, white and blue tights as the patriotic superhero Captain America is no longer so absurd.

    According to LatinoReview.com, Marvel Studios has yet to approach Leo for the role; they've simply placed him atop their wish list. Still, the mere possibility is more than enough to inspire furious debate on fanboy discussion boards everywhere. Personally, I think Leo's voice is a bit too whiny for Steve Rogers/Captain America. Plus, his oversized noggin might prove a tad distracting while in costume, dwarfing Cap's iconic shield. Disagree? Discuss.

  • Chaser Remake Coming Stateside

    The last time Warner Bros. picked up an Asian flick for remake purposes, it became a little Best Picture winner named The Departed.

    The studio is hoping for similar success with their new pickup, the South Korean thriller hit The Chaser. The studio is taking a similar approach to Departed, with early talk of Departed screenwriter William Monahan writing Chaser and Leonardo DiCaprio as a possible lead.

    According to Variety, the film is loosly based on the exploits of a real life serial killer. In the original, Ha Jung-Woo played the killer.
