Leonardo DiCaprio To Play A Viking King

According to some reports actor Leonardo DiCaprio through his production company, Appian Way and Warner Bros. have acquired the rights to a film called King Harald, which tells the story of Harald Hardrada, who after fifteen in years in exile rises up to become one of the last kings of the Viking Empire.

DiCaprio has been keen on making a Viking film for quite some time, and at some point there was even reports that he was set to star in a Mel Gibson Viking movie, which eventually got scrapped after Gibson’s crazy rants.

King Harald is one of some projects DiCaprio is working on, the other is Rasputin, so let’s see what comes first.
