Leonardo DiCaprio and Martin Scorsese have collaborated on a number of films, including the upcoming Killers of the Flower Moon. Their next project has been revealed by David Grann.

Grann, who is the author of Killer of the Flower Moon's source material, is off promoting his new book, The Wager: A Tale of Shipwreck, Mutiny, and Murder, in France. He told Télérama that Scorsese would be adapting The Wager next and that DiCaprio will be joining the film.

Reports of DiCaprio and Scorsese gaining the rights to The Wager first circulated last year, but it seems Grann has confirmed their involvement.

The Wager is a nonfiction book chronicling the events of the Wager Mutiny. In 1741, a British warship was wrecked on an island we now know as Chile. Grann's book was released earlier this year on April 18.
