Leonardo DiCaprio To Team Up With Mel Gibson For Viking Flick

meleofilm.jpg

Woah, we definitely didn't see this one coming!

Mel Gibson will direct Leonardo DiCaprio in an upcoming period drama set during Viking times, reports Variety. Not many details are known about the film, but DiCaprio will play a Viking in a storyline that will apparently be "as unsparing as Gibson’s other period directing efforts." Leo with horns and some major 'tude? We can dig it!

The film will start shooting next fall, and co-producer Graham King tells Variety, “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 film with Mel, Leo and Bill [Monahan, screenwriter]."

Sounds interesting! And who knew Leo was such a Viking enthusiast?



Think Leo and Mel will hit it off?

Well that certainly explains the "business" meetings that LaLoca had recently with Leo. She was auditioning for a part: Aud the 'deep-minded' lived a veritable Viking Age odyssey. The daughter of a Norwegian chieftain in the Hebrides, she married a Viking based in Dublin and, when both her husband and son had died, took charge of the family fortunes, organising a ship to take her and her granddaughters to Orkney, Faroe and Iceland. She settled in Iceland, distributing land to her followers, and was remembered as one of its four most important settlers. Yep, she is the right actor for the part of "Aud the deep minded". Bwahahahahahahahahaha!

Boy Mel aged, his mouth looks like an old man's with no teeth and a nasty tounge.

They are both great actors, but if Leonardo is going to play a Viking, he better start lifting weights, Vikings are muscular dudes with attitude.

Alexander Skarsgard and his father Stellan would bring more to roles in this film than Leonardo ever could

this is a bomb in the making. leo does not fit the bill of badass murdering viking. same with depp as dillinger in public enemy. too much of a prettboy for the role to be believeable

Movies are not there to be believable?? They are there to help people get away from the toils of life; even for a moment. I enjoy movies and the actors that share their talent. Hooray for all actors and actresses and the movie industry!!! Thank you all!!!
