Leonardo DiCaprio Cast As Frank Sinatra for Film About His Life - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Leonardo DiCaprio is still to set to play Frank Sinatra for Martin Scorsese. But he’s probably not going to sing.

“With those records?” Scorsese asked me, his voice rising, at the premiere last night for his new DiCaprio collaboration, “Shutter Island.” “Frank will do the singing. But we’re waiting for a finished script.”

So while he’s waiting, Scorsese’s next film will likely take a break from DiCaprio. “The Invention of Huge Cabret” is lighter fare for Scorsese, about a 12-year-old boy who lives in Paris and meets famous French silent film director and magician George Méliès.

I thought Leo was great as Howard Hughes! I can't wait to see him as Frank Sinatra!

Leonardo is a great actor and Martin Scorsese is a brilliant director.

He'll definitely be able to pull this off. Leo is a future Oscar winner for sure.
