Ew.com is reporting that Leonardo DiCaprio has signed on to an untitled project to be directed by Mel Gibson. The film is to be a period drama set in the Viking culture. William Monohan, writer of The Departed, is penning the script which is expected to shoot in the fall of 2010.This will be the first film with DiCaprio and Gibson collaboration, and currently the film doesn't have a distributor. Personally, I am excited to see how this turns out. DiCaprio, who I didn't care for much after Titanic, has really pushed hard and succeeded at changing his image from teen romance actor to just a real actor. I have enjoyed many of his films over the last decade. I also have enjoyed all the directorial efforts by Gibson (Man Without a Face, Braveheart, The Passion of the Christ, Apocalypto).
In the mean time Gibson is set to appear in Edge of Darkness and DiCaprio, who just finished Christopher Nolan's Inception, is in Shutter Island this February.
Hopefully, this new film will be as good as the others.

I hardly know anything about Inception but I'm really excited about it anyhow.
Right now, I don't know that any of us know what Inception is. I remember renting Memento when it first came out on DVD. I've been a fan of Christopher Nolan since. The movie could be about grass growing in China, and with him directing I would still be entertained.
Yeah, agreed.
