Leonardo DiCaprio Can Fight The Reaper

By Josh Tyler: 2009-01-07 23:42:11
Leonardo DiCaprio Can Fight The Reaper Leonardo DiCaprio may soon star in a movie called Beat the Reaper. Cool title right? It instantly conjures up images of Leo engaged in a battle of wits with death, going one on one with the grim Reaper himself in wicked games of chance and perhaps even a rousing round of Battleship. Well forget it, this isn’t that interesting.

Beat the Reaper is based on a novel about a guy running from the mob. Yep, another mob movie. You can’t get too many of those! I can, but apparently you can’t or they wouldn’t keep making them. This particular mob movie is about an emergency room doctor who is actually a rat in the witness protection program. A mobster patient recognizes him, and his life gets complicated. “Complicated” is the word Variety chose to use when breaking this story. I would have gone with “bullet-filled”.

The rights to the book have been acquired by New Regency and it’s being produced by DiCaprio’s production company. No one’s entirely certain if he’s really going to be in it, but it’s a mob movie and what actor could pass that up? Certainly not Leo DiCaprio.
