Leonardo DiCaprio Sailing With Christopher Nolan

Leonardo DiCaprio will team up with Christopher Nolan for Inception, Nolan's first directing gig since last summer's The Dark Knight. Nolan wrote the film and will direct it. Warner Bros. will release the picture.

The film is expected to begin shooting sometime later this year and has an anticipated summer 2010 release date attached. Nolan is keeping details of the script under wraps, but the studio has revealed that the film will be a modern sci-fi action thriller that looks at the "architecture of the mind."

It's worth nothing that DiCaprio starred in the highest global and domestic grossing film of all time, Titanic, and that Nolan directed the second highest grossing domestic film and fourth highest grossing global film of all time with Knight. That's a lot of box office success between the two, which could help propel Inception to success.
