HOLLYWOOD, Calif. — Leonardo DiCaprio will be taking on a killer role.
The 35-year-old actor will star as serial killer H.H. Holmes in a big-screen adaption of The Devil in the White City, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Erik Larson's best-selling 2003 novel intertwines the true tale of two men—Daniel H. Burnham, the brilliant architect behind the legendary 1893 Chicago World's Fair, striving to secure America's place in the world; and the cunning serial killer Holmes, who used the fair to lure his victims to their death.
DiCaprio will also produce the project, which is still in search of a writer and director.
