Oscar-winning actor Leonardo DiCaprio and critically acclaimed director Martin Scorcese are looking for a reunion with the long-awaited film adaptation of Erik Larson's bestselling book 'The Devil in the White City', reported Deadline. The 20th Century Studios, an American film production house is reportedly in talks with Leonardo to star and Scorcese to direct the film adaption of a book which will also mark their reunion on the big screens. 

As per Deadline, DiCaprio and Scorsese are also expected to produce the film along with Stacey Sher, Rick Yorn and DiCaprio's Appian Way partner Jennifer Davisson. There is currently no script for the pic, which is based on Larson's nonfiction classic Devil in the White City: Murder, Magic and Madness at the Fair That Changed America, first published in 2004. Leonardo and Scorsese have been developing the project for some time, and it is believed that they always felt the story of Erik's bestselling book 'The Devil in the White City' has resonated with them throughout the years and still does, reported Deadline.
