The Revenant has been nominated for an impressive 12 Academy Award nominations, including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor and Best Supporting Actor. It might finally be the film that gets Leo his much coveted award, so it’s no surprise then that DiCaprio is expected to again team up with screenwriter Mark L. Smith.
According to Deadline, the two will be reuniting for Conquest, which is being described as a “star vehicle” for DiCaprio. The only information we have so far is that Paramount Pictures has picked up the project, Smith is writing the screenplay and John Davis (Joy) will be producing. We don’t know any plot details yet. We don’t even know what genre the film will be, but when was the last time DiCaprio was in a truly bad film?
