Martin Scorsese Reports Hawaii Mob Movie Starring Dwayne Johnson, Leonardo DiCaprio

Emily Blunt has revealed details about an upcoming Martin Scorsese-directed mob movie set in Hawaii during the 1960s and 1970s, starring Dwayne Johnson as a ruthless Hawaiian crime boss inspired by Wilford 'Nappy' Pulawa. The film, described by Blunt as "the last great American mob story," is currently in development with the screenplay being written by Nick Bilton. Leonardo DiCaprio, a frequent Scorsese collaborator, is also involved in the project as both a star and producer. This film marks a third collaboration between Blunt and Johnson, who previously worked together on Jungle Cruise and The Smashing Machine. The story focuses on an aspiring mob boss battling rival factions to control organized crime on the Hawaiian islands. While the movie's release date is yet to be announced, Scorsese plans to direct it after completing his next project with DiCaprio and Jennifer Lawrence.
