“The Wolf of Wall Street”
Martin Scorsese is looking to direct Leonardo DiCaprio in the film adaptation of Jordan Belfort’s upcoming tell-all autobiography “The Wolf of Wall Street” for Warner Bros. Pictures, with “The Sopranos” scribe Terence Winter aboard to write.
In “Wolf of Wall Street” DiCaprio would play Belfort, a Long Island penny stockbroker who served 20 months in prison for refusing to cooperate in a massive 1990s securities fraud case that involved widespread corruption on Wall Street and in the corporate banking world, including mob infiltration. - Variety
