Martin Scorsese is eyeing a Frank Sinatra biopic with Leonardo DiCaprio. However, Scorsese faced a setback with the Sinatra estate in the past, leading to the project’s halt. The estate’s concerns about Sinatra’s portrayal, especially his complex persona, proved challenging.
Scorsese’s efforts to revive the biopic with DiCaprio and Jennifer Lawrence are met with similar issues, as the Sinatra estate, run by daughter Tina Sinatra, holds reservations. The estate’s reluctance could be tied to Lawrence potentially portraying Ava Gardner, who played a role in Sinatra’s personal life drama.
Despite the obstacles, Scorsese remains determined to delve into Sinatra’s multi-faceted character. His upcoming projects include the Sinatra biopic and a Jesus movie, potentially reuniting with Andrew Garfield. Sinatra’s story continues to intrigue audiences, promising an enthralling cinematic experience.
