Martin Scorsese and Leonardo DiCaprio are teaming up for a new action thriller feature.
The project, titled "Carthage Must Be Destroyed", hails from Ocean’s Eleven scribe Ted Griffin.
The film's synopsis reads: "A stranger happens upon a rust-belt city in decline, ruled by its criminal underworld. Using brain and brawn, he sows distrust and creates chaos, in order to dismantle the corrupt power structure."
Scorsese and DiCaprio are exec producing; Chad A. Verdi, LBI Entertainment’s Christopher Donelly and Gareth West, Michelle Verdi, Chad Verdi Jr., Paul Luba, and Jennifer Davisson are producing. Lisa Frechette and Sera Verdi are also exec producing.
The production companies are Sikelia Productions, Appian Way Productions, Verdi Productions, and Ketchup Entertainment. Casting is currently underway, with production set to kick off in October in Rhode Island.
The project comes after DiCaprio starred in Scorsese’s latest film, 2023’s "Killers of The Flower Moon."
