The first image from Martin Scorsese's next major movie has been released by Apple, showing Leonardo DiCaprio and Lily Gladstone in their starring roles in a scene from the film. The image shows off the film's stark visual style, lighting, and of course how the actors will appear as their respective characters of Ernest and Mollie Burkhart. Like the 2017 non-fiction book by journalist David Grann, the film's plot investigates a series of murders of wealthy Osage people that took place in Osage County, Oklahoma in the early 1920s--after big oil deposits were discovered beneath their land.
