Ashecliffe is the upcoming film by Martin Scorsese, starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Mark Ruffalo, Michelle Williams and Ben Kingsley. Formerly known as Shutter Island, it’s based off the book of the same name by Dennis LeHane.
I reviewed the book awhile ago, and I’ll just reiterate how unbelievably awesome it was and the fact that it’s being made into a movie is killer. But then you get a director like Scorsese and a lead actor in DiCaprio, and suddenly the project feels like it could be one of the best movies of the year.
Sadly, that year is NOT going to be 2008. As of right now, according to IMDB, the film will arrive on October 2nd, 2009.
That’s a heck of a long way off.
But we already have two photos of the production, which feature DiCaprio and Scorsese behind a chain link fence.
The photos are courtesy of The Boston Herald. Yeah, they aren’t anything spectacular, but I’m so pumped for this movie, they could have just shown the FENCE and I’d be happy.
Enjoy.









I didn't realize that DiCaprio was taller than Scorsese…
Maybe I'll read the book NEXT summer so I'll still remember what happens.
What's the big deal about DiCaprio? I never understood it.
Dude, Scorsese is practically a hobbit
Maybe he should star in Jackson's The Hobbit then - mob style…The God Hobbit
