Martin Scorsese Wants to Cast Leonardo DiCaprio as Frank Sinatra in New Biopic: Reportwww.yahoo.com/entertainment/martin-scorsese-wants-cast-leonardo-195033509.htmlThe director reportedly wants Leonardo DiCaprio and Jennifer Lawrence for the Sinatra biopic."Leonardo DiCaprio may be stepping into major shoes for his next role. Variety reported April 17 that director Martin Scorsese, 81, is planning to make a biopic about Frank Sinatra after he makes his movie about Jesus. The outlet cited sources who said DiCaprio, 49, would play the iconic singer-actor in the film, with Jennifer Lawrence also eyed as Sinatra's second wife Ava Gardner. DiCaprio and Lawrence, 33, costarred with each other in 2021's Don't Look Up. Variety reported that Sinatra's daughter Tina, 75, holds control over Frank's estate and has not yet approved of the project. Reps for DiCaprio, Scorsese and Lawrence did not respond to PEOPLE's requests for comment."

They should get Frank Sinatra's son, er uh I'm sorry I meant Wood Allen's son, Ronan Farrow to play him, he looks like just like Sinatra (a complete coincidence that has nothing to do with Sinatra being Mia Farrow's ex)

Scorsese really needs to move from DiCaprio. Seriously, there are no other actors he can cast in lead roles? He was miscast in Gangs of New York and The Aviator. He looked like a kid trying to act like a grown up.
DiCaprio looks nothing like Sinatra.

For reasons I cannot fathom, bio-pics of singers - even though they follow typical Hollywood plot arcs - very often result in nominations and awards. That is the only reason I can see for this latest effort. As for whether the actors look like the subjects they are portraying...well, that's mostly irrelevant. Authenticity is a minor consideration for these movies.
