Leonardo DiCaprio and Martin Scorsese revive their HH Holmes film The Devil in the White City

it seems Leonardo di Caprio and director Martin Scorsese They will finally shoot their movie about HH Holmes, The devil in the white city.

They have been linked to this project for years and has gone through various development phases. At one point it was developed as a series on Hulu Keanu Reeves Attached to the star, but that project went to pieces.

Now the project is being developed again as a film, and DiCaprio is in negotiations to act with Scorsese in negotiations to direct. Even DiCaprio and Scorsese would have produced.

The deadline says that there is currently no screenplay for the film, which is based on the book Devil in the white city: murder, magic and madness at the fair that changed America So I guess they’re starting from scratch.

The film tells the true story of Daniel H. Burnham, “a demanding but visionary architect who tries to leave his mark in history with the Chicago World Fair of 1893, and Dr. Hh Holmes, the first modern American serial killer and the Man behind the notorious “Castello degli Assassini” built in the shadow of the fair.

Holmes admitted that he killed 27 people, but in reality he is said to have killed more than 200 people. “He built the World’s Fair Hotel, which was an inn where people could stay during visits, and the sociopath used his fascinating behavior to attract guests to his hotel, which since then has become known as the Castle of the murders .

“The castle included a gas chamber, a crematorium and a dissection table where he would kill his victims and stripped their skeletons to sell them for medical and scientific studies. When Holmes was arrested, he said to the police:

“I was born with the devil inside me. I could not do without the fact that I was a murderer, no more than the poet can help inspiration to sing – I was born with the wicked ‘standing like my sponsor next to the read where I was put into the world, and since then he has been with me. “

Dicaprio obtained the rights of the book for the first time in 2010, and the relationship states that “after a meeting with the leaders of 20th Century, all the parties agreed to tell this story at the theatrical level”.

The story of HH Holmes is incredibly dark and fascinating, and I couldn’t wait to see her told on the big screen, so I am enthusiastic that she is actually going on.
