According to The Wrap, Scott Cooper (Out of the Furnance, Black Mass) is in talks to direct American Wolf for Warner Bros., Leonardo DiCaprio’s Appian Way and Kevin McCormick’s Langley Park.

American Wolf is based on source material from Nate Blakeslee, an editor at Texas Monthly, and tells the story of “a hunter in Yellowstone National Park who accidentally kills an endangered American wolf, and the unlikely friendship that forms between him and the wildlife researcher who works with wolves in the park.”

Cooper’s next film Black Mass opens this month, with a cast that includes Johnny Depp (Public Enemies),Joel Edgerton (Exodus: Gods and Kings), Benedict Cumberbatch (The Imitation Game), Dakota Johnson (Fifty Shades of Grey), Peter Sarsgaard (Night Moves), Adam Scott (The Overnight), Corey Stoll (Ant-Man) and Kevin Bacon (Cop Car).
