What Happens at Night First Look: DiCaprio, Jennifer Lawrence, Scorsese Leonardo DiCaprio’s recent mustache at the 2026 Oscars has been explained by the first look at Martin Scorsese’s “What Happens at Night,” a psychological horror film set in a European small town. The movie, adapted from Peter Cameron’s novel of the same name, follows a married couple who travel there to adopt a baby. The story explores their unraveling relationship as they struggle to claim their child, revealing a world where nothing is as it seems. DiCaprio headlines the film in a reunion with Jennifer Lawrence, his co-star from “Don’t Look Up.” This marks the first time Lawrence has worked with Scorsese, who is known for his intense direction in films like “Shutter Island” and “Goodfellas.” During a conversation for Variety’s “Actors on Actors,” Lawrence sought advice from DiCaprio on navigating Scorsese’s unique approach. DiCaprio shared that the director often references old films, sometimes screening entire movies to help actors grasp specific scenes. He mentioned that Japanese ghost films might be used for tone, emphasizing the director’s meticulous attention to detail. The film is produced by Apple, which also backed Scorsese’s “Killers of the Flower Moon.” While no release date has been announced, the project is expected to draw comparisons to Scorsese’s earlier psychological thrillers. The story’s eerie atmosphere and exploration of marital tension align with the director’s signature style, suggesting a return to the haunting narratives of his past work.
