Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu

Surely… and we mean SURELY this must be it!

For five years we have been able to hear the sound of the world’s heart breaking when Leonardo di Caprio again and again fails to win the Oscar.

The only positive thing to come from these losses is the internet doing what it does best – hilarious memes.

However, with the first trailer for his new film The Revenant having been released, it looks as if the five-time nominee may well be on his way to achieving his (or at least our) dream.

This time, Leo has teamed up with Alejandro Gonzalez Iñárritu (Scorsese clearly wasn’t getting the job done), the mastermind behind this year’s multi-award-winning Birdman.

The film chronicles the real-life events of Hugh Glass, a fur trapper who is attacked by a bear before being left for dead by his partners. The film follows Glass’s journey across the wilderness to seek revenge on the men who robbed him.

With the combination of Alejandro Gonzalez Iñárritu and the Oscar-winning cinematographer on Birdman, Emmanuel Lubezki, The Revenant is undoubtedly going to be a triumph.

The only question left is, will Leo be triumphant to?

Leonardo DiCaprio has landed a very exciting role as a real-life frontiersman looking for revenge in The Revenant.

The 39-year-old Oscar-nominee is set to take on the role of Hugh Glass, who is mauled by a grizzly bear in the movie adaptation of Michael Punke’s book The Revenant: A Novel Of Revenge.

Academy Award-nominated Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu – famed for his 2006 drama Babel starring Brad Pitt and Cate Blanchett – will direct the film which he co-wrote with Mark. L. Smith.

Although no further cast members have been revealed, the film is set to start production in November and will be released in autumn next year.

DiCaprio last hit the big screen in 2013’s The Wolf of Wall Street and was nominated for an Oscar for his portrayal of corrupt stock broker Jordan Belfort.

Meanwhile, Inarritu‘s next movie Birdman, which stars Edward Norton, Emma Stone and Naomi Watts, is due out in October.
