oxford25 Posted April 19, 2012 Posted April 19, 2012 See tons of tweets about this on Twitter, I guess now it is considered official that Leo and Marty will do "Wolf of Wall Street " Leonardo DiCaprio Will Star As A Hard-Partying, Drug Abusing Stockbroker In 'The Wolf Of Wall Street' Movie ]It's official! Leonardo DiCaprio will star in the "Wolf of Wall Street" -- a movie adaptation of Jordan Belfort's best-selling memoir directed by Martin Scorsese, Deadline reports.Leonardo DiCaprio will star as Jordan Belfort – the ‘Wolf of Wall Street.’Terence Winter (“The Sopranos,” “Boardwalk Empire”) adapted the screenplay, which chronicles Belfort’s dramatic rise and fall on Wall Street, along with his hard-partying lifestyle and tumultuous personal life, which included drug and alcohol addiction.“Everything about this film plays to Martin Scorsese’s genius and visionary storytelling, said Riza Aziz. “At its heart, ‘The Wolf of Wall Street’ is about the rise of new ‘modern’ gangsters in New York. Wall Street gangsters that redefined excess, greed and arrogance. We’re excited to see Mr. Scorsese take the reins of this visceral, tumultuous ride.”We'll probably be seeing DiCaprio and the cast around Wall Street since production is expected to begin in August.

Now, in this astounding and hilarious tell-all autobiography, Belfort narrates a story of greed, power, and excess no one could inventRead more: http://www.businessinsider.com/its-officia...9#ixzz1sVjLtSng Quote
