Old pals Mark Wahlberg and Leonardo DiCaprio have starred in films like THE BASKETBALL DIARIES and THE DEPARTED together, and now it looks like they could be reuniting for another flick. According to gossip column PageSix.com, Mark and Leo could be starring in an untitled flick based around drug kingpin Jon Roberts. The same site is reporting that the film will be a direct adaptation of the documentary COCAINE COWBOYS, which was recently released on DVD.

The untitled flick "will blow Blow out of the water," says a movie insider who added that Leo "is excited about the opportunity to play the airplane pilot who travels with Mark's character to obtain kilos of cocaine from Pablo Escobar."

Leo's camp are apparently denying that he has signed on to star though. Peter Perg (THE KINGDOM) will however direct the film.
