Social media erupts as Leonardo DiCaprio is announced to play Frank Sinatra in his biopic by Martin Scorsese.
Leonardo DiCaprio and Martin Scorsese are two of the biggest titans of cinema. DiCaprio is known for his charisma and flawless acting while Scorsese’s gritty realism is unmatched by anyone else. Magic has happened whenever these two worlds have collided in movies like “The Departed” & “The Wolf of Wall Street”.
Now, the pair are set to reunite for a project that’s sure to generate a buzz – a biopic about the legendary singer Frank Sinatra. However, with any highly anticipated film, there are always those who express doubt. But DiCaprio’s supporters are firing back, ready to defend the actor’s ability to embody the spirit of Ol’ Blue Eyes.
Some Fans Believe Leonardo DiCaprio Is The Only Actor Who Can Pull Off The Role of Frank Sinatra
Leonardo DiCaprio‘s casting as Frank Sinatra in Martin Scorsese‘s upcoming biopic has ignited a firestorm of debate. While some fans remain unconvinced, others hail it as a perfect match. Some are pointing out the physical disparity between the two stars.
Sinatra, with his stocky build and signature swagger, presents a stark contrast to DiCaprio’s leaner physique. DiCaprio’s supporters, however, believe his talent transcends mere physical resemblance. Some even claim that their physical differences might actually be beneficial to the movie because “it will be a real performance not an imitation of vocal tics on a mannequin”.
Of course, DiCaprio’s singing ability is no match to Sinatra. Thus, hopes are high that the movie can utilize voiceovers or creative sound editing to bridge the vocal gap. Ultimately, only time will tell if DiCaprio can embody the spirit of the legendary crooner. However, considering that it Scorsese and DiCaprio are involved in a project together, it’s hard to believe that it can be a bad movie.Besides Martin Scorsese, Leonardo DiCaprio is Set To Star In A Paul Anderson Film
A still from Inception
While the internet grapples with DiCaprio’s suitability for Sinatra, the actor is keeping busy. Beyond the highly anticipated Scorsese project, DiCaprio is also slated to star in an upcoming film by Paul Thomas Anderson. This venture marks their first collaboration, and with both boasting impressive track records, expectations are high.
Anderson is known for his auteur style and has crafted a string of critically lauded films like There Will Be Blood and Phantom Thread. His direction makes him a perfect counterpart for DiCaprio’s intense acting style. Details about the project remain under wraps, with the film currently under the working title “BC Project.”
Besides DiCaprio, Regina Hall, Sean Penn, Alana Helm, and a few more names have been signed for the movie. Further, the Inception star will be drawing about $20 Million for his role in the movie, as per Variety.
