The announcement comes months after Apple acquired Scorsese’s upcoming drama Killers of the Flower Moon , starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Robert De Niro, from Paramount. The movie will stream on Apple TV+ after its theatrical run, reported Deadline. Scorsese, best known for films such as Taxi Driver, Goodfellas, The Departed, The Aviator and most recently _The Irishman_ , formed Sikelia Productions in 2003, and the company has produced all of the auteur’s projects since then. Apple had previously signed first-look deals with DiCaprio’s Appian Way, Idris Elba’s Green Door Pictures and Ridley Scott’s Scott Free Productions. (With inputs from Press Trust of India)
