Ben Kingsley and Mark Ruffalo have joined the cast of Martin Scorsese’s Shutter Island. Based on the Dennis Lehane (Mystic River, Gone Baby Gone) novel, Leonardo DiCaprio stars as U.S. Marshal Teddy Daniels, who travels to Shutter Island, a small island in Massachusetts’ Outer Harbor, home of Ashecliffe Hospital for the Criminally Insane, to find [...]
Has Martin Scorsese gone mad? The legendary director has apparently offered Sylvester Stallone the part of Chuck Aule in the big screen adaptation of Dennis Lehane’s Shutter Island!? Stallone hasn’t signed on the dotted line as of yet (but why wouldn’t he? It’s Scorsese?), but if he does come on board, he’ll be starring alongside [...]

The story follows studio-hired scandal-clean-up private detective (DiCaprio) who is hired to investigate whether a starlet murdered her husband. [...]
Last month we reported that Titanic stars Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet would reunite in Revolutionary Road. But what first seemed like a coincidence (Winslet’s husband Sam Mendes is directing which explains her casting) now seems to be a big marketing gimmick as Titanic co-star Kathy Bates is also set to board the project.
Titanic stars Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet have signed on to star in Revolutionary Road for Dreamworks. Winslet’s husband and American Beauty director Sam Mendes will direct the film. This will be the first time he has directed either star.
Martin Scorsese has become the popular high demand director due to The Departed’s Oscar buzz. Warner Bros have acquired screen rights to yet another project for the director. But with so many projects in the works, will he ever find the time? And what will he take on next? Let’s take a look at Scorsese’s [...]
