Martin Scorsese Biography Flash a weekly Biography. Martin Scorsese, the legendary 82-year-old filmmaker, has been remarkably active in recent weeks, giving us plenty to cover for this Biography Flash episode. Let's dive into what the maestro has been up to. First, the big news on the streaming front: The Wolf of Wall Street, Scorsese's 2013 crime masterpiece starring Leonardo DiCaprio, is making a major platform move. After leaving Fubo TV on November 29th, the film found a new home and became available on Netflix starting December 1st. This 407 million dollar worldwide grossing film marked Scorsese and DiCaprio's fifth full collaboration, and remains one of the director's most commercially successful ventures to date. On the documentary front, Scorsese and his longtime editor David Tedeschi have been making waves with their latest project, Beatles 64, which premiered on Disney Plus on November 29th. This marks another significant addition to Scorsese's impressive documentary catalog, which includes classics like No Direction Home: Bob Dylan and Rolling Thunder Revue. Speaking of documentaries, Apple TV Plus launched an extensive multi-part documentary about Scorsese's life and work called Mr. Scorsese, which debuted on October 17th. This comprehensive examination of his career has been garnering significant attention in the industry. In terms of upcoming projects, Scorsese has confirmed he's far from finished. He's currently in pre-production on two major films: The Devil in the White City, a serial killer thriller based on Erik Larson's novel, and What Happens at Night, an adaptation of Peter Cameron's 2020 novel. The latter will reunite him with Leonardo DiCaprio and also star Jennifer Lawrence, marking their first collaboration since Don't Look Up in 2021. Additionally, Scorsese is working on another DiCaprio project involving actor Dwayne Johnson in a film based on a true story about the Hawaiian mob, though details on this remain limited. Throughout November, Scorsese made several public appearances, including attending a special screening of his 1995 film Casino at the Tribeca Festival for its 30th anniversary, where he participated in a conversation with Robert De Niro moderated by filmmaker W. Kamau Bell. He also opened an exclusive exhibit at the Museo del Cinema in Turin, Italy, celebrating 25 years of his career. Thank you for tuning into Biography Flash.
