Veteran filmmaker Martin Scorsese's historical drama Killers of the Flower Moon, starring Robert De Niro, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Brendan Fraser will be released in limited theatres from October 6.

The film, set in 1920s Oklahoma and centres around the Osage Nation murders, will have a wider release from October 20, according to media reports.

The film, being produced Apple Original Films, will be released on OTT platform Apple TV+ later.

Killers of the Flower Moon, based on David Grann's historical book of the same name, recounts the story of how members of the Native American tribe were murdered one by one after the group became rich off the oil found underneath their land.

"Leonardo DiCaprio will play the main role, Bob (De Niro) will return to play William Hale, the "king of the Osage hills", the man responsible for most of the murders. For the rest, they will be Native American actors," the director had earlier said while talking about the film.
