Russell Uncovers "A Legacy Of Secrecy"

David O. Russell will write and direct the long-developing "Legacy Of Secrecy" says Showbiz 411.

 
Based on the book by authors Lamar Waldron and Thom Hartmann, which puts forth the theory that Mafia godfather Carlos Marcello told FBI informant Jack Van Laningham that he was behind President John F. Kennedy's assassination in Dallas in November 1963.

Leonardo DiCaprio was attached to the film a few years ago to play van Laningham. Russell is also poised to have his "Silver Linings Playbook" star Robert DeNiro on to play Marcello.
