Mel Gibson and Leonardo DiCaprio Set for Viking Pic
Leonardo DiCaprio will star with Mel Gibson. who has also signed on to direct an untitled period drama about Viking culture based on a script from William Monahan.
The principals confirmed the project but would not divulge many details. DiCaprio, who has long been fascinated by Viking culture, will play one in a storyline “that will be as unsparing” as Gibson’s other period directing efforts, Braveheart, The Passion of the Christ and Apocalypto.
“This will be an awe-inspiring story, created with some of the industry’s finest cinematic talent, and I am just over the moon to be making this with Mel, Leo and Bill,” producer Graham King said in a statement.
I have become fans of both actors and are really looking forward to this film as Gibson track record as a director is good and DiCaprio hasn’t made a bad film in awhile. We look forward to posting more about this as it develops.
