Leonardo DiCaprio May Star in Christopher Nolan's Inception

Variety is reporting recent Golden Globe nominee Leonardo DiCaprio (Revolutionary Road) may be headlining The Dark Knight helmer Christopher Nolan's next film, Inception. Although the plot's being kept a closely guarded secret, we do know that Inception will be a sci-fi action movie. Nolan wrote the screenplay and is directing as well as producing the film, which is set up at Warner Bros Pictures. Filming is expected to begin this summer with Warner Bros aiming for a July 16, 2010 release date.

DiCaprio, who's been keeping exceptionally busy as a producer snatching up projects for his company, Appian Way, will next be seen in front of the cameras in Martin Scorsese's Shutter Island.
