As a longtime film enthusiast with over two decades of immersion in the cinematic world, I must say that the prospect of Martin Scorsese directing a biopic about Frank Sinatra is nothing short of exhilarating. Having witnessed the masterful collaboration between Scorsese and Leonardo DiCaprio on numerous occasions, I can confidently assert that this partnership has produced some of the most captivating and memorable performances in recent cinematic history.


At Montecarlo’s beautiful Portofino, Italy, on Monday night, model Vittoria Ceretti, 23, was spotted enjoying time with her 49-year-old actor boyfriend Leonardo DiCaprio.

1. Comfortably gazing out, they both enjoyed the Italian shoreline view prior to having dinner outside at the popular eatery, La Gritta Restaurant.

At some point, the model for Dolce & Gabbana was spotted taking puffs from a cigarette while she was out on a date with a prominent actor.

During my summer getaway, I had the pleasure of crossing paths with two old friends of Leonardo’s – Tobey Maguire, who is now 49 years old, and Lukas Haas, a man of 48.

Edward Kobina Enninful, a 52-year-old editor and stylist from Ghana who now resides in Britain, held prominent roles as editor-in-chief of British Vogue and European editorial director at Condé Nast. Accompanied by his partner, Alec Maxwell, he was among the attendees.

As a devoted admirer, let me share my insights about Portofino, a charming fishing village nestled along the Italian Riviera’s coastline, southeast of the enchanting city of Genoa. A picturesque path guides you from the bustling Piazzetta to Castello Brown, an architectural gem dating back to the 16th century that now serves as a fortress, museum, and art gallery. Its walls hold captivating exhibitions, while its vantage points offer breathtaking panoramas of the town below and the mesmerizing Ligurian Sea.

I adorned myself in an alluring ensemble, donning a sleek black hoodie atop a sparkling mini dress in gunmetal gray. My long, dark tresses cascaded naturally around me, while I accessorized with a radiant diamond necklace and earrings that caught the light.

1. The model adorned her outfit with sleek, black strappy flats reminiscent of those seen in the movie Gladiator. (This version maintains the original’s essence while making it more accessible and easier to read.)

1. Instead of saying “Leonardo was much more casual as usual,” you could say “Leonardo looked unusually relaxed this time.”

1. As he conversed with his fellow male actors, the actor who played the Titanic role was observed enjoying a glass of red wine. Additionally, there was bottled water from Italy’s Tuscany region, known as Panna water, on the table.

Tobey, who was also in basic black clothing, was also drinking wine as he sat next to several men.

I had the pleasure of spotting Emily Skinner, renowned for her captivating performances on the Brat network and Disney Channel’s hit series Andi Mack!

The 21-year-old budding star was also on the TV series Crown Lake and Total Eclipse. 

She wore a strapless floral-print dress with a long gold necklace as her blonde hair was down.

1. The actress was spotted close to Haas, who appeared curious during their discussion, wearing a T-shirt and sporting a gold ring on his little finger.

The setting was upscale.

1954 saw the establishment of La Gritta, brainchild of Lorenzo Raggio. During the ’60s and ’70s, it became a popular hangout for the glamorous international jet-set and royalty visiting Portofino. The restaurant offers an inventive cuisine with a focus on seafood. To elevate your dining experience, they offer a carefully curated selection of fine wines and champagnes.

26-year-old Vittoria hails from Italy, where she works as a high-fashion model. She was spotted and signed by the renowned agency, Elite Models, following her victory in their annual Model Look Contest back in 2012.

In awe and excitement, I can’t help but share my unwavering admiration for Ceretti. By the year 2024, this fashion icon had graced runways an incredible 400 times! And let me tell you, it doesn’t get much better than that. But wait, there’s more! The prestigious Vogue magazine bestowed its cover to Ceretti no less than 23 times – international editions included! Simply put, I am utterly captivated by this extraordinary talent.

Earlier this month she got close to a male model while shooting an ad for Dolce & Gabanna.

I’ve given my all in promoting Leonardo DiCaprio’s newest film, “Killer of the Flowers Moon,” since last autumn, right through to this year’s Oscars. Now, it’s time for him to relax and savor his well-deserved downtime.

Next up for the star may be playing iconic singer and movie star Frank Sinatra.

Martin Scorsese is planning to direct a Sinatra biopic.

An 81-year-old filmmaker is creating a new project where his longtime collaborator, known for singing “My Way,” will appear in the leading role.

1. Jennifer Lawrence, a friend of Leo’s, might be cast as the second wife of the singer, the classic Hollywood starlet, Ava Gardner from the Golden Era.

Based on Variety’s report, Martin Scorsese’s Sinatra movie might encounter an obstacle since Tina Sinatra, the daughter of the star, manages his estate and hasn’t granted approval for the film yet.

It was Gardner who broke up Sinatra’s marriage to Tina’s mother Nancy Barbato.

1. It appears that Apple, having backed Scorsese’s recent film “Killers of the Flower Moon,” is eager to collaborate with the director again; however, it seems Sony may have secured the rights for their upcoming project.

1. If the Sinatra biopic indeed materializes, it will be their seventh collaborative film project, with Scorsese praising DiCaprio as a ‘naturally gifted cinematic actor.’

The Taxi Driver’s director expressed: “Leo has a unique ability to fully immerse himself in a project, which makes our collaborations so frequent.”

1. “He visits peculiar, intricate locations that seem complex and confusing at first glance, but somehow lead us to a clear understanding.”

Based on my experience as a film director, I’ve found that there are certain actors who possess a natural ability to convey emotions through their facial expressions and eyes. One such actor comes to mind, and I’ve often shared my observation with him. He may not always be acting, yet his skill shines through the camera lens. I could capture a close-up shot of him, seemingly pondering over nothing, and seamlessly intercut it with any scene. Viewers would still remark, “Oh, he’s reacting to such and such.” It’s a testament to his innate talent as a film actor.

‘There’s something in his face that the camera locks into, in his eyes.’

Earlier this year, Timothée Chalamet revealed the advice DiCaprio gave him.

The 28-year-old actor shared that Leonardo Da Vinci from “Don’t Look Up” imparted valuable wisdom to him, such as avoiding joining the cast of DC or Marvel films.

In a conversation with The New York Times, he shared that Leonardo DiCaprio advised him, “Avoid superhero films and steer clear of harsh drugs.” He found this advice to be commendable and has been adhering to it ever since.

2008’s DC Batman blockbuster by Christopher Nolan, The Dark Knight, actually sparked his initial interest in acting.

However, he added: ‘The movie that made me want to act is a superhero movie, ‘The Dark Knight’. If the script was great, if the director was great, I’d have to consider it.’

Part Two auditioned for a leading superhero role in Spider-Man: Homecoming.)

Chalamet applied for the part of Peter Parker and his superhero persona (later given to Tom Holland) in the 2017 film twice during the casting process. His agent had to prevent him from showing up at Marvel’s office for a third audition.
