Leonardo DiCaprio, Jennifer Lawrence to Star in Martin Scorsese’s Ghost Story Movie ‘What Happens At Night’

Leonardo DiCaprio and Jennifer Lawrence will star in the next movie for Martin Scorsese, The Hollywood Reporter has confirmed.

The film is an adaptation of the ghost novel What Happens At Night, which follows a married couple that travels to Europe to adopt a baby, staying in a cavernous, fading European hotel filled with eccentric characters. Patrick Marber (Closer) penned the screenplay.

Apple Original Films is in talks to finance and produce the movie with Studiocanal.

The movie marks the first onscreen collaboration for Lawrence with Scorsese as a director. (Scorsese is a producer on Lawrence’s upcoming feature Die, My Love). DiCaprio last worked with his longtime collaborator on Apple feature’ Killers of the Flower Moon.

DiCaprio can next be seen in Paul Thomas Anderson’s movie One Battle After Another, while Jennifer Lawrence will next be in theaters with Die, My Love. The move comes as Scorsese is balancing a few features in development, including a Hawaii-set crime drama that would star Dwayne Johnson and Emily Blunt.
