... would happen seems almost inevitable and though weve known about it for months, what we still dont know is who hell cast to play Americas most iconic Italian-American crooner.

They claim Leo is battling it out with Johnny ...

Filmstalker —
... that battle is solved and now we're onto casting. According to reports there's now a three way fight to get the lead and play the great man, and it's running between Leonardo DiCaprio, George Clooney and Johnny Depp. However if you look at the three actors and at Frank Sinatra , I think there's only one of those three that is the closest to the man himself and is proving himself to be the best actor these days, and that's Leonardo DiCaprio . The rumours come from The Guardian through Cinema Blend that the three are in contention for the role, and I've ...

Depp, Clooney and DiCaprio Battling For Sinatra Role
Screen Rant —
... However, we get news today - thanks to The Guardian (via Cinemablend) that DiCaprio may be more in the running to play Sinatra than we first thought, along with the already-mentioned Depp (who I guess is seriously being looked at since his name is still attached, as opposed to the studio just throwing his name in there to attract attention to the project) and we now learn that George Clooney is being looked at as well. Hmmm - three of Hollywood’s biggest names battling it out to play one of the entertainment industry’s ...
The three big names who want to play Frank Sinatra

... away from the “violent, sexually charged, hard-drinking Frank.” Clearly, his family would want a gentler Frank revealed the world, and Clooney might be a better fit for that type of role. Tina is the executive producer of the project, and is the one who cleared the film to use Sinatra’s own recordings, so her opinion is of utmost importance.
It’s almost guaranteed that the part will go to one of these big names, but do you have any other ideas for the role?

The Movies: George, Leo and Johnny All Want To Be Frank

... In my humble opinion, the only one who can even come CLOSE to potraying this American Icon, is Leo. George Cloony is too old and JohnnyDepp as amazing as he is, just dont look lie Frank. This is Leo’s to lose, but what the hell do I know? Im just a crazy movie nerd. To see how this super batttle is waging head over HERE. ...

Sinatra's life filled the pages of gossip columnists with tales of sexual intrigues, presidential friendships and mafia links. Producer Cathy Schulman said: "Everyone knows Marty Scorsese is a final-cut director. So there had to be a lot of trust that he would tell this story in a way that didn't destroy Sinatra's memory."

... frank-sinatra.jpg The ever-reputable Guardian claims Martin Scorsese's Frank Sinatra biopic is the setting for a casting war! Except it's not so much a war so much as three big names that they're claiming may or may not be trying to get the lead: George Clooney, Leonardo DiCaprio and Johnny Depp are all fighting to land the role that will surely give the victor the best chance yet of securing the critical acclaim to match their earning power.

... that Martin Scorcese will be directing with Universal producing. Now mega-stars Johnny Depp, Leonardo DiCaprio and George Clooney are rumored (courtesy of UK newspaper The Guardian ) to be in contention for the role of Old Blue Eyes. It’s probably important to note here that Clooney’s rep, Stan Rosenfeld, told EW , “I wouldn’t believe anything I read in British papers” — which isn’t exactly a denial — while a Universal rep said the studio had no comment.
