The real lead in the movie is an A- lister who is married to an A- list actress.

This A+ list mostly movie actor is not the lead in his new movie.

This permanent A list actor is also not the lead.

The actual lead in the movie is an A- lister who is married to an A- list actress.

For whatever reason, the A- list actor is being pushed out of all publicity or attention for the new movie and it is very heavy handed.

Now, if the movie does poorly, they will throw him under the bus.

‘Killers of the Flower Moon’ First Look Hits CinemaCon: Finally, More Photos

Leonardo DiCaprio is a serial killer dodging the FBI in Martin Scorsese’s epic “Killers of the Flower Moon.”

The official logline reads: “Killers of the Flower Moon” is set in 1920s Oklahoma and depicts the serial murder of members of the oil-wealthy Osage Nation, a string of brutal crimes that came to be known as the Reign of Terror.

The trailer showed DiCaprio hunting for “Black Gold,” marrying Gladstone, and confronting Plemons.

“I was sent down from Washington D.C. to see about these murders,” Plemons says to DiCaprio’s character. “See what about it,” he replies. “See who’s doing it.”

Described as Scorsese’s first Western, “Killers of the Flower Moon” is based on David Grann’s non-fiction book about the series of murders in Osage County, Oklahoma during the 1920s after oil was discovered on Osage Nation Indigenous land. Eric Roth and Scorsese adapted the book for the screenplay. Scorsese produces the film, with DiCaprio executive producing.

Brendan Fraser, Robert De Niro, Tantoo Cardinal, Cara Jade Myers, JaNae Collins, and Jillian Dion also star in the sprawling film that will make its world debut at 2023 Cannes. Festival director Thierry Fremaux compared “Killers of the Flower Moon” to an old Hollywood style of filmmaking, saying, “Martin Scorsese’s film is along the lines of big, popular yet director-driven films of the past, like David Lean and Cecil B. DeMille.” – Source
