This could be something interesting indeed! Especially if you're an action freak, because when you have professional thieves, well, there's always a lot of action, right?
Ok then, first of all, let me tell you that we still have no confirmation about the whole thing, but this definitely sounds like one great rumor!
Apparently, Leonardo DiCaprio is interested to star in a movie that will follow the adventures of infamous Pink Panther gang, real-life Serbian criminals that are quite popular these days. Just in case you have no idea what we're talking about, check out the rest of this report.
According to Serbian press, a screenwriter of the upcoming DiCaprio movie visited Belgrade last week to meet with Interpol officials and a Radio Belgrade host Dragan Ilic. Here's what Ilic had to say about the whole thing:
“It's very serious story, but it's still a secret, and I can not talk about it. It's true that the movie is coming, they are paying attention on every single detail, and if it happens – it will be a great job. There's a lot of ideas, and a big interest in “Pink Panther” gang in the world, bigger than in Serbia.”
Let me remind you that The Pink Panther gang became infamous after a jewel heist in London's upscale Mayfair district in 1993 valued at around half a million euros. British police called the gang “The Pink Panthers” in reference to a series of 1960s movies starring Peter Sellers.
It is estimated that the group's robberies in cities all over the world over the last 10 years netted them some €250 million.
Interpol headquarters in Lyon formed a special project to deal with the gang, and while some have been arrested and convicted, others remain at large.
Well, we're definitely interested in this story, and we'll definitely keep an eye on it, so make sure you stay tuned for more updates!
