The 40-year-old DiCaprio is set to be an executive producer for a Showtime series about the family of Mafia's in 1980s Brooklyn. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the untitled Showtime drama series is set in that time of Brooklyn when everybody was spending their life doing the drugs.

The writer of "Mad Men" and "Ray Donovan," Brett Johnson is already on-board to co-executive-produce and write the series for Showtime.
