Legendary filmmaker Martin Scorsese and Oscar-winner Leonardo DiCaprio are teaming up once again—this time to produce an explosive new action thriller titled ‘Carthage Must Be Destroyed’.
The film, directed by ‘Ocean’s Eleven’ writer Ted Griffin, promises gritty action, suspense, and a whole lot of edge. Advertisement Set in a decaying rust-belt city, the story follows a
mysterious outsider who arrives with a plan. Using both brains and brawn, he begins to tear down a criminal empire from the inside, pitting the city’s underworld against itself.

since the early 2000s. They kicked things off with the epic ‘Gangs of New York’ (2002), then went on to craft hits like ‘The Aviator’, ‘The Departed’, ‘Shutter Island’, and ‘The Wolf of Wall
Street’. Most recently, they reunited for ‘Killers of the Flower Moon’, and now, they’re turning their creative focus to the action genre with ‘Carthage Must Be Destroyed’. Advertisement
