They are eyeing Jono Matt and 'Scream Queens' star Glen Powell to write the script, according to the Hollywood Reporter.
If things move forward, Jennifer Davisson Killoran and DiCaprio, a known environmental activist, will produce the film, based on the cartoon series of the 1990s, via Appian Way, which signed a first-look deal with Paramount in March, along with Powell.
It is not clear whether Powell will also star in the movie.
