Leonardo DiCaprio seamlessly transitions from one Wall Street hustler to another, judging by the first trailer for Martin Scorsese’s madcap The Wolf of Wall Street (Nov. 15).
DiCaprio plays real-life stockbroker Jordan Belfort, who could give Jay Gatsby a run for his money when it came to hedonism and hard partying. He made a killing during the bull market/junk bond craze of the ’90s with his merry band of manipulators until it all came crashing down. A wild and crazy snapshot of the American Dream gone south, with Scorsese back in his New York element. And he’s shooting digitally again, this time with cinematographer Rodrigo Pietro (Argo).
