Fresh off playing a man who made his own way in 鈥淭he Great Gatsby,鈥� actor Leonardo DiCaprio is now starring in director Martin Scorsese鈥檚 adaptation of the memoir 鈥淲olf of Wall Street鈥� as a stockbroker.
鈥淲all Street鈥� is based on the memoir of the same name by Jordan Belfort, who went to jail for almost two years for crimes which included stock market manipulation.
DiCaprio plays Belfort, while other stars on board include Matthew McConaughey, Jonah Hill, and Jean Dujardin of 鈥�The Artist.鈥�
Scorsese is teaming up with DiCaprio for the fifth time, having directed the actor in such films as 鈥淭he Departed鈥� and 鈥淪hutter Island.鈥澛�
The film is currently scheduled for a Nov. 15 release.
The movie鈥檚 trailer includes scenes of DiCaprio and Hill partying and a voiceover by DiCaprio that makes no apologies for his lavish lifestyle. His paycheck of $49 million a year really made him angry, DiCaprio says, 鈥渂ecause it was three shy of a million a week.鈥� McConaughey is seen encouraging DiCaprio. 鈥淣obody knows if the stock is going to go up, down, sideways, or in circles,鈥� McConaughey tells him.
But DiCaprio is also shown getting visits from the FBI.
鈥淲as all this legal?鈥� DiCaprio asks the viewer. 鈥淎bsolutely not.鈥澛�
