Martin Scorsese and Leonardo DiCaprio’s ‘Devil in the White City’ Adaptation Dead at Hulu

The thriller series, based on the novel of the same name, has gone through multiple lineups, including Tom Cruise and Keanu Reeves

 

Martin Scorsee and Leonardo DiCaprio’s adaptation of “The Devil in the White City,” based on Erik Larson’s 2003 book about the notorious real-life 19th-century serial killer, is no longer moving forward at Hulu, multiple sources reported on Monday.

 

It’s the latest no-go for the project in a nearly 20-year attempt to bring it to the screen. The most recent version had Keanu Reeves set to star as visionary architect Daniel H. Burnham, but once “Tár” director Todd Field exited in October, so did Reeves.

 

No casting was announced for the title role of Dr. H. H. Holmes, who is considered America’s first modern serial killer. He slaughtered guests who were attending the 1893 Chicago World’s Fair in his diabolical “Murder Castle.” The horrific true story inspired a 2006 episode of “Supernatural.”

 

DiCaprio acquired the rights in 2010 through his Appian Way Productions and Scorsese signed on to direct as a film in 2015. The two stayed on as executive producers when it was repurposed as a TV series in August 2022, and are said to be trying to shop it to a new home.

 

Tom Cruise and Paula Wagner first optioned it for Paramount, but their option lapsed in 2004. Paramount reacquired the film rights in 2007, this time with producers Michael Shamberg and Stacey Sher onboard.

 

The newest iteration had Scorsese, DiCaprio, Sher, Rick Yorn, Sam Shaw, Mark Lafferty and Jennifer Davisson of Appian Way as eps with Shaw adapting and serving as showrunner for ABC Signature and Paramount Television Studios.

Leo would kill it in this part. I don't understand why he won't just play the part of Holmes.

Me neither Also isn't Leo going to lose the rights at some point if the project isn't going any further? He owns the rights since 2010. That's 13 fuckin years of nothing.

 

Kill it literally

I don't want to see him as a serial killer!

 

The best one who can do this part is  Joaquin Phoenix. It will be perfect for him

 

Also, Adam Driver is a good option for this role.

 

Adrian Brody is amazing too.

 

I can imagine Edward Norton for this role too

Got a little inspired ☺️

Apparently Jude Law and Jeremy Allen White are in talks to star in the -at this point homeless- limited series with Matt Ross to direct.

 

 

‘Devil in the White City’ Dead at Hulu

The limited series had been in talks with new stars (Jeremy Allen White, Jude Law) and a director (Matt Ross) but the Disney-backed streamer dropped out of doing the series that has been in the works for more than a decade. Producers ABC Signature plans to shop it.

Devil in the White City is officially dead at Hulu.

 

Sources say the Disney-backed streamer is no longer moving forward with the limited series that had been in various stages of development for more than a decade. However, sources say producers ABC Signature remains committed to the drama and will be shopping the show to new outlets.

 

The news comes months after leading man Keanu Reeves and director Todd Field (Tár) dropped out of the drama from Martin Scorsese and Leonardo DiCaprio.

 

Sources say Hulu and Paramount Television Studios and Disney’s ABC Signature, who together were on board to produce the series, had been in talks with The Bear star Jeremy Allen White and Jude Law and director Matt Ross for the project. Sources say ABC Signature is still in talks with White, Law and director Ross for the series, though it’s unclear if they will close given the fact that Devil does not currently have a home.

 

Devil has been in the works for more than a decade, including a stint when it was envisioned as a feature film, with Sam Shaw (Hulu’s Castle Rock) on board as writer, showrunner and exec producer. DiCaprio and his Appian Way partner, Jennifer Davisson, exec produce alongside Scorsese. The latter was previously set to direct the feature film take that had been set up at Paramount Pictures with DiCaprio formerly set to star.

 

Reeves — following months of dealmaking — was attached to star and exec produce the series that landed at Hulu for development in 2019 and was formally picked up to series last year. Field was on board to direct the crime drama, which ultimately became a co-production between Paramount Television Studios and Disney’s ABC Signature. Paramount Pictures won the rights to the novel following a massive bidding war in 2015, when Billy Ray was on board to pen the scripts. Field departed three days after Reeves dropped out of the show.

 

Based on Erik Larson’s novel, Devil revolved around Daniel H. Burnham (the role formerly to have been played by Reeves), a demanding but visionary architect who races to make his mark on history with the 1893 Chicago World’s Fair, and Dr. H. H. Holmes, America’s first modern serial killer and the man behind the notorious “Murder Castle” built in the fair’s shadow.

 

Rick Yorn, Stacey Sher and Mark Lafferty also exec produce the series. A formal episode count has not yet been determined. Scorsese and DiCaprio previously teamed for features Gangs of New York, The Aviator, The Departed, Shutter Island and The Wolf of Wall Street. The frequent collaborators had previously developed TV takes on Gangs of New York and Shutter Island, though neither moved beyond the script stage. DiCaprio currently has a film and TV deal at Apple where he exec produced the Apple series Shining Girls.

 

Updated 5:14 p.m.: This story has been updated to reflect that Jeremy Allen White, Jude Law and director Matt Ross are still in talks to board Devil.

Tks for latest new Leo restaurant pic ,as well as , Devil news 

 

I read Larson’s book Devil & White City and one of Holmes’ key traits is that he was extremely charismatic and could easily charm both women & men which was key in luring his unsuspecting victims to their deaths 

 

He was so charismatic,  that even after he was convicted of the murders , Larson stated that the prison authorities had to keep an eye on him as he was charming all  of the prison guards & getting special treatment 

 

Leo is extremely charismatic and when he flashes his million dollar smile , be it woman or man , one is easily blinded from seeing what is behind the smile = and , sometimes, it is a killer 

 

Would LOVE for Leo to do the role

18 Early Predictions For Oscars 2024: Actors, Director & Best Picture

Even before the films have been released, several movies, directors, and actor performances are already predicted to receive nods at the 2024 Oscars.

 

While the 2023 ceremony has still yet to commence, there are plenty of exciting performances, directorial efforts, and movies that are already predicted to receive nods at the 2024 Oscars. The nominees for the 2023 Oscars event largely offered a fresh change to the Academy’s voting history in relation to genre and diversity, especially with the history that could be made with predicted winners in the acting categories. The 2024 Oscars are expected to follow a similar path, as the slate of 2023 movies features numerous highly-anticipated stories and performances that aren’t apt to be forgotten.

 

Although it’s too early to accurately predict winners at the 2024 Oscars, several films, their stars, and their directors are already front-runners for nominations based on their genres, history at the Academy Awards, and anticipation. However, given none of the films predicted to be nominated in acting, directing, and best picture categories at the 2024 Oscars have been released, the list is apt to change as more films premiere and their official critical consensus is determined. Still, with a year left to go until the 96th Academy Awards ceremony, there are 18 potential nominees in the big four categories from anticipated 2023 movies that already have good chances of earning recognition at the Oscars.

 

Martin Scorsese – Best Director

 

Legendary filmmaker Martin Scorsese is tied with Steven Spielberg for the most directing nominations at the Oscars with nine nods, but he could pull ahead at the 2024 Oscars. Scorsese’s upcoming film Killers of the Flower Moon is one of the most highly anticipated films of 2023, marking the director’s sixth feature film collaboration with Leonardo DiCaprio. Given the fact that Scorsese has received a Best Director nomination at the Oscars for each of his film collaborations with DiCaprio except Shutter Island, May 2023’s Killers of the Flower Moon is likely to earn him another one. If Martin Scorsese scores a Best Director nomination at the 2024 Oscars, he’ll have been recognized in the category 10 times.

 

Leonardo DiCaprio – Best Actor

 

While he didn’t score a nomination for his performance in the 2022 Best Picture nominee Don’t Look Up, Leonardo DiCaprio is expected to receive yet another acting nod at the Oscars for his performance in Martin Scorsese’s upcoming movie Killers of the Flower Moon. DiCaprio has been nominated for the Best Actor Oscars five times already, having won the award in 2016 for his portrayal of Hugh Glass in The Revenant. Two of DiCaprio’s other Best Actor nominations were for movies he made with Martin Scorsese, including The Aviator and The Wolf of Wall Street. As DiCaprio leads another true story adaptation from Scorsese in Killers of the Flower Moon, he’s predicted to earn a nomination for Best Actor at the 2024 Oscars.

 

Killers Of The Flower Moon – Best Picture

 

Martin Scorsese has already directed nine Best Picture-nominated films, with the highly-anticipated Killers of the Flower Moon being set to follow suit at the 2024 Oscars. The Apple TV+ original film is based on the true story of the Osage tribe murders in the 1920s, with Scorsese’s project also having a budget of $200 million. Oscar-winning actors Leonardo DiCaprio and Robert De Niro leading Scorsese's film is a recipe for success at the 96th Academy Awards, especially with Apple leading its campaign after CODA’s 2022 Best Picture win.

The 20 Best Actors of All Time

 

Coming up with a list that englobes the “best actors of all time” is no easy undertaking. It might be a highly subjective endeavour, in fact, seeing as everyone has their own tastes and requirements to be called the “best.”

 

That said, there have been some great actors that shine just a little bit brighter than your everyday Hollywood celebrity, and that’s a fact.

 

Knowing full well that this list is as subjective as they come, we’ve come up with a listing of the 20 actors who we believe are among the best artists to ever grace the silver screen.

 

2. Leonardo DiCaprio

 

Starting in the movie business at a young age is rarely kind to child actors, but some of them, like Leonardo DiCaprio, end up reshaping the entire entertainment industry for the better. Not only is DiCaprio an incredible actor, but he’s also an immensely altruistic fellow, helping the environment and those in need with his philanthropic organizations.

 

In 2015, thanks to The Revenant, Leonardo DiCaprio finally managed what some thought was impossible: he finally won the Academy Award for Best Actor in a Leading Role, an accolade he had been pursuing for quite some time.

Uhm... what??????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Is this a serious site?

 

Exclusive: Leonardo DiCaprio Reteaming With Quentin Tarantino For Final Movie

We've learned that Leonardo DiCaprio will appear in Quentin Tarantino's final feature film.

 

We still don’t know what the director’s final film will be, but we know of one of the stars who will appear. Our trusted and proven sources have told us that Leonardo DiCaprio is set to appear in Quentin Tarantino’s final movie. Whether or not it will be the long-rumored Kill Bill 3 or something else has yet to be revealed.

 

For some time now, Tarantino has vowed to end his feature directorial career with his tenth film, though last we heard the director hadn’t chosen anything, and everything from Kill Bill 3 to Star Trek 4 was in the running. The latter of those two has since been put to bed, and now that we’ve learned Leonardo DiCaprio will be in the feature, it would seem to suggest Kill Bill 3 isn’t Quentin Tarantino’s most likely choice. While DiCaprio’s romantic partners may be on the younger side, the actor will turn 49 years old this year and — unlike David Carradine when he appeared in the Kill Bill films — doesn’t have a lot of experience playing martial arts masters.

 

That doesn’t completely discount the notion of Kill Bill 3. Tarantino’s films are known to be ensemble affairs and while Leonardo DiCaprio doesn’t tend to play second fiddle to other stars, for the Oscar-winning Quentin Tarantino, The Revenant star might make an exception. He could play a supporting character who doesn’t need to throw any fancy kicks like Michael Parks or Julie Dreyfus in the first film.

 

Regardless of what part he plays in the film, Leonardo DiCaprio is fated to be given high praise in any mention of the career of Quentin Tarantino, particularly when it comes to the second half of the director’s time behind the camera. DiCaprio’s first time in a Tarantino feature was in the director’s seventh film, 2012’s Django Unchained. DiCaprio played hard against type as the film’s chief villain — the unapologetically sadistic and racist plantation owner Calvin Candie from whom Django (Jamie Foxx) and Dr. Schultz (Christoph Waltz) seek to liberate Broomhilda (Kerry Washington).

 

Leonardo DiCaprio worked with Quentin Tarantino in the director’s latest feature, 2019’s Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. This time DiCaprio played the protagonist Rick Dalton, a 1950s TV star who finds his celebrity fading at the twilight of the 1960s. Once Upon a Time in Hollywood found both DiCaprio and Tarantino nominated for Oscars (Tarantino for 3), though sadly neither won in their various categories.

 

We’d like to tell you we have an idea about when we’ll get to see Leonardo DiCaprio in Quentin Tarantino’s final film, but judging by the intervals between his previous movies, it’s impossible to even guess. This July will mark four years since the wide theatrical release of Tarantino’s ninth film, and a quick glance at IMDb tells us that the longest interval between his releases so far is six years (between 1997’s Jackie Brown and 2003’s Kill Bill: Vol. 1). As soon as we know more, we’ll make sure you do too.

Thanks for all the articles, jade.

 

I will say MY OPINION here, after seeing Elvis, Banshees of Inisheran and The Whale: even though I think Colin and Brendan Gleeson both did a great job at Banshees but I think Barry Keoghan was the absolute better actor in the movie along side with the supporting actress. So in no way Collin Farrel  had a better  performance than Brendan Fraser ( that man made me cry like a baby with his performance) or Austin Butler (that was soo brilliant). I think Brendan will beat Austin but if Austin wins it won't be unfair, but I think Brendan was superior in the emotional range. 

 

But with saying all that above, I still understand the article take on Oscar giving more awards to historical figures, real life people and physical transformation performances. But this time around I can't disagree with Brendan and Austin being the best contenders this year.
