The Rise of Theodore Roosevelt

Martin Scorsese and Leonardo DiCaprio are going after the Oscar together again.

The golden duo will be making the biography of Theodore Roosevelt into a film, called The Rise of Theodore Roosevelt, coming sometime in 2011. DiCaprio will be playing Roosevelt. Duh.


The film will chronicle Roosevelt's life as a young politician and his rise to the White House.

We just hope DiCaprio does a good enough job to win the Oscar, because we're getting a little tired of his intense dramas and tortured, dark characters. Yes Leo... we get it... you can act. You're sooooo serious. Now make us laugh.

The biography was written as a planned trilogy, so two more books are still to come. Does this mean we'll see DiCaprio play the famous ex-prez thrice?
