Leonardo DiCaprio is reteaming with Jamie Foxx for a Warner Bros. crime film titled Mean Business on North Ganson Street,

The film is based on S. Craig Zahler's forthcoming crime novel. Zahler will write the script. The project has no director, but the two actors are attached.

The book tells of two detectives who team up to stop a series of attacks on a police department. It begins with a disgraced detective (DiCaprio) who is sent to a Missouri town where crime is spiking. He is partnered with a detective who has his own set of violent issues (Foxx) just in time to see police officers becoming targeted for murder. The two decide to dish out their own brand of justice.

So much for DiCaprio's break from acting.

I knew Leo's retirement was all talk!

I just hope that they don't shorten the title down.

To what?

To just Mean Business.

 

[I SEE SPIDEY]

I like Foxx.

I bet by the time this goes into production either Foxx or DiCaptio or both drop out.
