McKay, the man behind Step Brothers, Anchorman and The Big Short will write and direct Don’t Look Up. He is also producing the film with Kevin Messick.

McKay’s most recent movie, Vice was nominated for eight Oscars, including best picture.

DiCaprio meanwhile, recently announced he will be producing a new television series based on Aldous Huxley’s final novel Island.

Published in 1962, the novel is a counterpart to Huxley’s most famous novel, Brave New World. That book was recently adapted into a television series in the US.

Island, meanwhile, follows a journalist shipwrecked on the fictional island of Pala in the Indian Ocean and follows the character’s discovery of the community on the independent island.

He will also star in Martin Scorsese’s Killers of the Flower Moon adaptation alongside Robert De Niro.

Di Caprio and De Niro recently encouraged people to donate to a coronavirus emergency food campaign for the chance to star in their next movie.
