DiCaprio and his partner in Appian Way Productions., Brad Simpson, will produce the project for Warner Bros. At this stage, it is viewed as a potential acting vehicle for him. DiCaprio was last in theaters with his Oscar-nominated turn in"The Aviator." He is currently shooting WB's"Blood Diamonds," directed by Ed Zwick.
