One of the most monstrous crimes in American history was chronicled in David Grann’s best-selling book Killers of the Flower Moon: The Osage Murders and the Birth of the FBI, and Martin Scorsese is in the director’s chair for a film adaptation that’s coming soon from Apple. The cast includes Leonardo DiCaprio and Robert De Niro, and the first image has arrived.
Check it out above – DiCaprio is pictured alongside actress Lily Gladstone (Certain Women, Billions) – and learn much more about the upcoming movie over on Vanity Fair today.
Jesse Plemons (Antlers) also stars in Apple’s Killers of the Flower Moon.
“In 1920s Oklahoma, the Osage Nation were the richest people per capita in the world, after oil was discovered under their land. And then they were murdered, one by one. As the death toll rose, the newly created FBI took up the case and unraveled a chilling conspiracy and one of the most monstrous crimes in American history.”
The film was penned by Eric Roth, and it’s being produced by Scorsese alongside Imperative Entertainment’s Dan Friedkin and Bradley Thomas, along with Sikelia Productions’ Emma Tillinger Koskoff and DiCaprio’s Appian Way Productions.
