Martin Scorsese is a busy guy these days!

He is putting the finishing touches on [lastfm link_type="artist_info"]George Harrison[/lastfm]: Living in the Material World and will reunite with Leonardo DiCaprio for a remake of The Gambler.

The 1974 original starring James Caan centered on a New York English professor who suffered from a gambling addiction.

Lauren Hutton and Paul Sorvino co-starred in the original and this remake will mark the fifth time DiCaprio has worked with Scorsese after Gangs Of New York, The Aviator, The Departed, and Shutter Island.

No production date has been set, but Scorsese fans are excited because this film will most likely be shot exclusively on the streets of New York City!
