Mel Gibson is set to direct Leonardo DiCaprio in a Viking culture-themed untitled period drama ala Braveheart says Variety.
The Departed screenwriter William Monahan pens the script though plot details are being kept hush hush.
The project is slated as Gibson's next directorial effort, but the busy DiCaprio is expected to squeeze in another film before he does this one.
Graham King Gibson and Tim Headington will produce.
King told Variety: "This will be an awe-inspiring story, created with some of the industry's finest cinematic talent, and I am just over the moon to be making this film with Mel, Leo and Bill."
Filming kicks off next Fall.
