It looks like Martin Scorsese wants to snap up his muse Leonardo DiCaprio before Christopher Nolan adds him to the list of "Inception" actors returning for its sequel "The Dark Knight Rises," because now the duo are finally reteaming again with "The Wolf of Wall Street."
The two had been working on this one for a while, but recent reports pegged Ridley Scott as the man to adapt Jordan Belfort's 1990 novel (which also could have meant DiCaprio would be starring in it). Now, Deadline reports that Scorsese and DiCaprio will shoot the film once the director has finished work on "Silence," his summer-shooting adaptation of the Shusaku Endo novel that has Benicio Del Toro and Daniel Day-Lewis attached.
"The Wolf of Wall Street" follows a drug-, sex- and alcohol-addicted brokerage firm operator's rise from a 20-something multi-millionaire in the 1980s to a 30-something federal convict banned from the securities business for life in 1994. This will be Scorsese and DiCaprio's fifth film together, which means DiCaprio is only three films away from being Scorsese's official new muse (since Scorsese and Robert De Niro have done a total of eight films together).

As movie trivia junkies already know, Whitey was the inspiration behind the villain of Martin Scorsese's "The Departed." The freshly caught gangster's history laid the groundwork for an Oscar-nominated turn from Jack Nicholson as Frank Costello, mirroring Whitey's days as the head of a South Boston crime ring with all the terror and ruthlessness that Hollywood bad guys typically bring to the table.
It's not a surprise that the two look pretty similar on the surface, but once you start looking at the details, it's no contest: when compared to Frank Costello, Whitey Bulger was the more terrifying dude by miles. Get all the evidence you need to back that statement past the jump!
