It sounds like he's potentially coming back, I just don't think he's been confirmed yet. No one knows for sure, though. As of now he is, at least, officially a producer on the project.

Man, this looks good. Having served in war zones, I can say combat journalists are a different breed of human.
Also excited to see Andy Samberg's range here. I've always wondered what he could do given the chance at more serious roles. He has an "everyman" quality about him.
The first, very odd, but very cool clip of Megalopolis, Francis Ford Coppola's magnum opus, one he's been trying to make for decades now (and finally financed himself), starring Adam Driver, Nathalie Emmanuel, Giancarlo Esposito, Aubrey Plaza, Shia LaBeouf, Dustin Hoffman, Jon Voight, Laurence Fishburne, Talia Shire, and Jason Schwartzman...
"A man balances precariously on a ledge high above a once-grand city. The movie that follows is - at least in part - about an entire civilization teetering on a similarly precarious ledge, devouring itself in a whirl of unchecked greed, self-absorption, and political propaganda, while a few bold dreamers push against the tide, striving to usher in a new dawn. The man is called Caesar (Adam Driver), like the Roman general who gave rise to the Roman Empire, Cesar the labor leader who organized California's farm workers in the 1960s, and a few other notably great men of history. But he is also clearly an avatar of myself a grand visionary witnessing a once-great thing (call it cinema if you must) withering before his very eyes and determined to revivify it. And, after decades of planning, MEGALOPOLIS the movie is the powerful elixir I have produced: a sweeping, big-canvas movie of provocative ideas and relentless cinematic invention that belies its maker's 85 years of age. I seem to have been born-again by a strike of filmic lightning, and the movie - no, the experience (complete with in-theater "live cinema") - that has emerged feels at once the work of a film-school wunderkind unbowed by notions of convention, but also the work of a wizened master who knows much about life and the ways of the world. To paraphrase myself speaking decades ago about APOCALYPSE NOW, MEGALOPOLIS isn't a movie about the end of the world as we know it, it is the end of the world as we know it. Only, where APOCALYPSE left us in a napalm-bombed fever-dream haze, MEGALOPOLIS, movingly, bestows on us a final image glowing with hope for the future."

When you've made The Godfather and Apocalypse Now, you get a little extra leeway in the pretentiousness department - along with a sizable ego, I'm sure. That said, coming from an old man finally getting to make his dream project - again, funded on his own dime by the sale of a significant portion of his wine empire (a deal reportedly worth over $500M), as crazy as he or the movie might be, I find his words weirdly endearing in this instance.

Billy Madison's explanation of the Industrial Revolution using The Puppy Who Lost His Way as the point of reference is less insane than this pile of horse****.

This movie and Devil in the White CIty movie that Leo was trying to make for a long time are two that I have kept tabs on. At least this one is getting made, the last I saw is the other is going to now be a tv show and Leo isnt even going to be in it. If he had actually made the movie AND been Dr. Holmes, that would have been very interesting.
