Martin Scorsese and Leonardo DiCaprio

Leonardo DiCaprio lauded Martin Scorsese's filmmaking "ferocity" on May 21 as they basked in rave reviews at Cannes for their Native American crime epic "Killers of the Flower Moon," while the festival also bowed down before Jude Law as King Henry VIII.

When Martin Scorsese premieres his latest film, "Killers of the Flower Moon," at the Cannes Film Festival on May 20, it will return Scorsese to a festival where he remains a key part of its fabled history.

Martin Scorsese's new film starring Leonardo DiCaprio, "Killers of the Flower Moon," will get its world premiere at the Cannes Film Festival on May 20, organizers confirmed on Friday.

It will be the first time the veteran filmmaker presents a new film at the festival since he won best director there in 1986 for "After Hours".
