Leonardo DiCaprio will star and produce the upcoming “Conspiracy of Fools “.
The film is based on a book by New York Times reporter Kurt Eichenwald.
It tells the story of Enron’s collapse.
In “Conspiracy of Fools,” DiCaprio will play a newcomer to the Houston-based energy company who slowly peels back the layers to expose the campaign of greed and fraudulent accounting that drove Enron into bankruptcy in 2001.
The scandal was previously chronicled in the 2005 docu “Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room,” based on the book by Fortune reporters Bethany McLean and Peter Elkind.
