Over the years Martin Scorsese has teamed up with Robert De Niro and Leonardo DiCaprio on some of the biggest Hollywood movies of the last half-century. Yet his two biggest star collaborators have never worked together on one of his pictures. That is until now, with the acclaimed director’s new movie Killers of the Flower Moon.
Scorsese’s epic blockbuster is based on the 2017 non-fiction book Killers of the Flower Moon: The Osage Murders and the Birth of the FBI. The film adaptation is set in 1920s Oklahoma and follows the FBI investigation into the mysterious murders of the Osage tribe at that time.
Joining DiCaprio and De Niro in an all-star cast are the likes of Jesse Plemons, Brendan Fraser, John Lithgow and rock star Jack White. The director himself penned the film with Oscar-winning screenwriter Eric Roth, best-known for Forrest Gump, Munich, A Star Is Born and Dune.

Killers of the Flower Moon is set to have its world premiere at the Cannes Film Festival next month. There have been rumours that the period epic’s cut is four hours long, but now Scorsese has locked the runtime in at a still-staggering three hours and 26 minutes. That’s three minutes shorter than his latest gangster flick The Irishman, but also half an hour longer than The Wolf of Wall Street.
Killers of the Flower Moon hits UK cinemas on October 20, 2023 and will stream globally on Apple+ afterwards.
