A true story of greed, love and murder set in the 1920s, when members of the newly oil-rich Osage Nation in Oklahoma began dying and disappearing in mysterious circumstances, the twisty crime drama hits theatres in October. Originally, DiCaprio was set to play White, but after spending time with the Osage, he and Scorsese decided to make a “big change” to the script, and centre the movie less on the FBI and instead on Burkhart.
“It was about immersing ourselves in that world,” said the New Yorker, despite the “110-degree heat” and the unsettling presence on the surrounding prairies of coyotes and wild horses. “I’m really thrilled to have a wide theatrical release before it becomes available at home,” said Scorsese, joking that small-screen viewing is only “ok” by comparison.
DiCaprio said Scorsese’s work “will be revered for centuries and generations to come,” and that the 80-year-old director continues to “create vital cinematic experiences that are at the very pinnacle of artistic ambition and achievement.”
